Put the Power to the Point!

MICROSOFT POWERPOINT ONLINE

Today we will:

Students will learn how to use the PowerPoint Web App in Office 365

Students will learn how to effectively use online research engines and other resources to include in their PowerPoint

Students will learn how to "Share" and work on a PowerPoint at the same time in Office 365.

So.... What exactly is PowerPoint?

This slideshow right now is made in PowerPoint, pretty nifty eh?

In PowerPoint you can insert pictures

Make animations

Have bullet points

Create shapes

And more!

What are we doing today?

I will use the random group generator to pick groups of 2 or 3

Once you are in your groups, decide on a topic to do your slideshow on such as an animal, activity, place, or famous person

After you have chosen your topic, let me know!

To create a PowerPoint

Be sure you are signed into Office 365.

Go to "SkyDrive" at the top blue bar

Then click "PowerPoint Presentation"

Only one person per group do this!!!!!!

Name your Presentation 

Example "Alex's and Michelle's Project on Giraffes"

Share your project with your group

Type in the names of your group members

Be sure they have "Edit" rights. Once their names pop up, click on them.

Finally...

Go back to your PowerPoint and begin working!

Group members check your email for the link to work on it..

I suggest that everyone work on a different slide..

Requirements

Title Slide

Slide with five facts about your subject

At least three pictures on the slides, one or two per slide

Conclusion saying why the group chose that subject

Animations are not required but will look good!!
