PowerPoint: What's the Point?
Welcome to the Course Page for PowerPoint: What's the Point? Fall 2024
Course Description: This is a 5-week course. This class is for those already familiar with PowerPoint (PPt), whether you’re an ICL instructor or not. Even experienced users are surprised that there’s more to learn. We’ll start with a refresher session (basics) and quickly move to dos and don’ts of using PPt for teaching, transitions, graphics, animations, integrating and managing media via PPt, and how to integrate PPt with Zoom. You can also bring your own projects, questions and concerns and we’ll try to help. We’ll use a workshop, rather than lecture, format and give you plenty of time to practice what you learn.
Special Note: See preparation notes at the Class 1 link.
