MSP100: Microsoft PowerPoint- Guided Workshop

Microsoft PowerPoint is an exciting application because there is so much room for creativity. In this class, we will have a lot of fun creating a fun presentation while also learning the different features of PowerPoint. Students will develop a PowerPoint presentation of their choice using the skills they learn in class. During our live lesson, I will guide the students in completing their weekly projects. By the end of the 16 weeks, they will have a completed project demonstrating their use of the features they learned about throughout the 16-week course.
We will cover many different features in this class. The following is a list of some of the topics we will cover during the 16 weeks:
- Navigating PowerPoint
- Designing the Presentation
- Transitions
- Animations
- Music and Sound Effects
- Formatting
- Pie Charts and Tables

I will provide students with instructions for Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows (2016) and Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows (2019).
