2. What can I do with PowerPoint?
PowerPoint is a software program to enhance your oral presentation and to keep the audience focused on your subject. You can use PowerPoint to create interactive presentations containing text, art, animation and video elements.
It is easy to customize presentations using one of the many design templates that come with the program. Many more free add-ins and templates are available online from Microsoft and a host of other websites. In addition to an on screen slide show, PowerPoint has printing options that allow the presenter to provide handouts and outlines for the audience as well as notes pages for the speaker to refer to during the presentation.
All in all, PowerPoint is a "one-stop-shop" to create successful presentations for the classroom or just for your own personal use.
