Before, our teachers used blackboards, manila paper, overhead projectors, and slide projectors to teach their lessons properly. Now, the most common presentation tool today is the computer.
At present, we use presentation software that help make dynamic presentations—a quality absent in traditional presentation tools.
This module will give you basic the steps on using presentation software.
The following are the three lessons in this module:
Lesson 1 – Understanding Presentation Software
After this lesson, learners should be able to:
- use a presentation software to produce different documents to present information in everyday life;
- create a new presentation based on the default templates;
- demonstrate how to save a presentation under another name, as another file type, and to a location on the drive;
- determine the use of the different toolbars;
- demonstrate the creation of a new presentation;
- distinguish different view modes; and
- manage a slide.
Lesson 2 – Formatting a Presentation File
After this lesson, learners should be able to:
- demonstrate understanding of formatting in a presentation file;
- demonstrate good practices in lists and tables in a presentation;
- edit charts in a presentation.
Lesson 3 – Inserting Graphics and Animations
After this lesson, learners should be able to:
- insert a graphical object;
- use tools to customize graphical objects in a presentation;
- demonstrate the finalization of outputs in presentation software in terms of preparation, checking, and presentation of slides;
