 What is It

Microsoft PowerPoint
Microsoft PowerPoint is a powerful presentation software that helps you produce an
effective presentation in the form of on-screen slides. It provides hyperlinks and
several animation styles such as Entrance, Emphasis, Exit and Motion Paths.
Animation and hyperlinks are great tools in making a presentation more dynamic.

Terms, Views and Functions in Microsoft PowerPoint

• Slide - is a single page of a presentation collectively, a group of slides may be

known as a slide deck. The shortcut key to insert a new slide is Ctrl+M

your slides.

• Slide Show Button - a collection of pages arranged in sequence that contain
text and images for presenting to an audience. You may press F5 if you want
to start your presentation from the beginning of the slides or you may click

• Animation - is a set of effects which can be applied to text or graphics within

a slide.

to your slides as you advance from one slide to another.

the speaker notes for each slide in the notes pane on the bottom of the pane.

form regardless of the design, objects and animations.

Hyperlinks in a Presentation

allows you to link to another slide in the current presentation, another slide in a
different presentation, another file or webpage, or email address.

Hyperlinks are usually activated by clicking on the text or image. Text hyperlinks
are usually in color blue and underlined. When you use hyperlinks only the
location of the source file is stored in the destination file, the linked data or file
remains in the source file. The data in the destination file is updated whenever
the source file is updated.

To insert hyperlink, do the following:

1. Select the text or object you want to insert a hyperlink to.

 What I Have Learned

In this lesson, I have learned that Microsoft PowerPoint is a very good

example of a presentation software because it allows users to present information in
a more engaging way. It also provides tools such as animation and hyperlinks that
enable users to create dynamic presentations. Use hyperlinks if you want to easily
navigate your slides during the presentation. With hyperlinks you can create links to
an existing file or web page, a place in the document, create a new document, and
send e-mail to a specified recipient.

To create an effective presentation, minimize the contents to maintain a clear

message, use fonts that are easy to read, use bullets or short sentences, do not flood
the slides with text, avoid using visuals or graphics that can distract the audience,
be mindful of the contrast, and be consistent on the design you use.
