PowerPoint Assignment

Create a Power Point slide show.

(It may also later be used as a slide show that presents your final project, if you wish.) You decide on the content and format. If you are unsure what to include just pretend you are presenting your project to an audience of your colleagues. Your presentation should have 5-10 slides (including a title slide).

Since this is an exercise designed to test your PowerPoint skills there are certain additional requirements,

  1. Your presentation should include a Title slide.
  2. It should have an About Me or About Us slide.
  3. It can be over any topic that interests you.
  4. Your presentation should use a design template. (Under Format.)
  5. [Extra credit: When a new bullet is introduced onto a slide, dim any previous bullets that might also be showing. Hint, go to slide view and select Custom Animation from Slide Show pull-down menu. Need more info?]

Using The Power Point Assignment to Build a Final Project

NOTE: You may want to use Power Point for your CS105 Final Project. You CAN use this assignment as a warm-up for the CS105 Final Project. However, your Final Project would need to be at least 16-20 slides, as opposed to the minimum of 5 slides for this assignment.

  1. Your presentation should include a Title slide.
  2. It should have an About Me or About Us slide.
  3. It can be over any topic that interests you.
  4. Your presentation should use a design template. (Under Format.)
  5. A transition should be defined for each slide in your presentation. (Under Slideshow.)
  6. The bullets or text animation should be used for each slide (e.g."fly in from the left"). (Under Slideshow.)
  7. It should add images. (You can use your own images or Web images or Clip Art.)
  8. [Extra credit: When a new bullet is introduced onto a slide, dim any previous bullets that might also be showing. Hint, go to slide view and select Custom Animation from Slide Show pull-down menu. Need more info?]
