Power Yourself Up For Powerpoint

   The PFR&P course finish line is glimmering on the horizon. We all have fared well so far with learning things we haven't encountered or before.  Now, we're coming down to the final stretch: Assignment 10 and the final PR project. Both undertakings hinge on our Powerpoint presentation skills. The question is, what if you have little or no experience with Powerpoint?  The answer is relax, you have plenty of help at your disposal.
 The Internet is loaded with Powerpoint tutorials and websites on the topic. You Tube alone has a number of videos that illustrate the slideshow creation program's functions.
 Two guides you should check out are Powerpoint For Beginners, and Making Your First Powerpoint. I think both are very informational and useful for people with little or no previous Powerpoint background. Check both videos out below.

   

                Moreover, one good Powerpoint instruction webpage can be found at www.electricteacher.com/tutorial2.  Once there, click on Powerpoint Tutorial. At that site, you can find information grouped under headings. They include Creating A New And Opening An Existing Presentation,  Powerpoint Basic Tasks, Templates, and Graphics.
               By the way, if you need Powerpoint images, you can get a lot of mileage from istockphoto.com. Just go to the web page's search engine and type in what you are looking for. You'll find many pictures, and the best part is you can download and save them for free. 
               And remember, if you are still at sea with Powerpoint, don't be afraid to ask questions to your classmates, your friends, your loved ones, or your course instructor. After all, the PFR&P class, among many other things, is about reaching out to others for advice when you need help. This is a valuable tip to remember for the real world when your performance, reputation, and career are on the line.
            That said, there is absolutely no need to fret. You have a lot the wherewithal to make good presentations for Assigment 10 and the final project. So go power yourselves up for Powerpoint!
