What
We Did Last Week
In last lesson, you were introduced to start PowerPoint
and create a presentation consisting of a title slide and single- and
multi-level bulleted lists. You learned about PowerPoint design
templates, objects, and attributes.
The project illustrated how to
create an interesting introduction to a presentation by changing the text
font style to italic and increasing font size on the title slide.
You completed these tasks and saved the presentation. You also
created three text slides with bulleted lists, two with multi-level
bullets, to explain how to meet friends in college. You learned how
to view the presentation in slide show view, how to quit PowerPoint, and how to open an existing
presentation.
You used the Spelling checker to search for
spelling errors. You learned how to display the presentation in
black and white and how to print hard copies of the slides in order to
make handouts and overhead transparencies. Finally, you learned
how to use the PowerPoint Help system.
Some of you have questions on selecting multiple slides.
Similar to selecting multiple files, you can hold the Ctrl key to select
non-adjacent slides or hold the Shift key to select adjacent slides.
We are going to have our PowerPoint test next week and you are strongly
encouraged to take the practice test in TOM if you have not done so. You
can make an appointment with any one of the testing centers and take the
test any day between Monday and Friday.
Again, please do not hesitate to email me if you have any questions.

What
You Will Learn This Week
Project 2 introduces you to the Outline tab, clip art, and
animation effects. You will create a slide presentation on the
Outline tab where you will enter all the text in the form of an outline.
You will arrange the text using the Promote and Demote buttons. Once the
outline is complete, you will change slide layouts and add clip art.
After adding clip art to slides without using a content
placeholder, you will move and size the clips. You will add preset
animation effects and apply animation effects to a clip. You will learn
how to run an animated slide show demonstrating slide transition and
animation effects. Then, you will print the presentation outline and
slides using the Print command on the File menu and e-mail the
presentation.
Finally, you will learn to save the presentation as a Web
page using the Save As Web Page command. Then you will publish your
presentation, and PowerPoint will start your default browser and open your
HTML file so you can view the presentation. At the end, you will
edit the presentation, save it again, and view it again in your default
browser.
