PowerPoint: Beyond the Basics


PowerPoint is the premier software used in business to enhance presentations and make sales.   Teachers can use PowerPoint to “sell” their content to their students or to teach their students how to present their own learning to classmates. In this three hour seminar you will learn how to go beyond PowerPoint’s basic features to create timed presentations with transitions and multimedia clips.  Bring a PowerPoint presentation that you have in progress or some ideas and materials so that you can leave with a PowerPoint presentation that you can use with your students or colleagues.  Prerequisite: Attendance at CWP Saturday Seminar "Packing a Punch with PowerPoint" or basic experience in using PowerPoint is necessary.
