00:00:07.940 --> 00:00:12.010
As you get further into developing your
presentation, it can be helpful to know

00:00:12.010 --> 00:00:16.820
how to review and manage your slides. You might be surprised by some of the tools

00:00:16.820 --> 00:00:23.140
that PowerPoint has to offer, including
ways to practice your presentation and take notes.

00:00:23.140 --> 00:00:26.580
This default view should be familiar to
you.

00:00:26.580 --> 00:00:31.220
There's a place on the left to navigate
your sides and a place here to edit your presentation.

00:00:31.220 --> 00:00:37.350
This actually has a name and it's called Normal view.

00:00:37.350 --> 00:00:43.020
It's one of four views you can access using the buttons at the bottom of the PowerPoint window.

00:00:43.020 --> 00:00:47.440
The second view is Slide Sorter, where
you'll find thumbnail versions of each slide

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:52.590
in your presentation. You can
easily change the order of your slides

00:00:52.590 --> 00:00:56.670
just by dragging and dropping the
thumbnails.

00:00:56.670 --> 00:01:01.409
Next is Reading View: this fills most of
your screen with a preview of your

00:01:01.409 --> 00:01:06.600
presentation, leaving room for navigation
buttons here at the bottom.

00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:11.270
Finally we have Slideshow view, which
completely fills the screen with what

00:01:11.270 --> 00:01:15.210
the audience will see when you present.
There's a helpful menu in the bottom

00:01:15.210 --> 00:01:19.200
left corner that will appear only when
you move the mouse, giving you the

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:25.680
ability to navigate your sides and
access other features like the pen and highlighter tools.

00:01:28.070 --> 00:01:29.970
Thinking ahead a bit, I'd like to

00:01:29.970 --> 00:01:34.500
write some notes about what I plan
to say during my presentation.

00:01:34.500 --> 00:01:38.250
PowerPoint actually offers two different
ways to do this:

00:01:38.250 --> 00:01:43.000
the first is in the Notes pane located at
the bottom of the screen. You might need

00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.140
to click the command here to make it
appear.

00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:51.060
First I'm going to click and drag the edge of the pane to make it a little bigger.

00:01:51.290 --> 00:01:53.480
And now we can click inside

00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:56.540
and start typing notes for this side.

00:01:56.540 --> 00:02:02.380
This is a great place for ideas,talking
points, or just little reminders for yourself.

00:02:02.380 --> 00:02:06.300
There is even a way to print these
notes so you can refer to them later

00:02:06.300 --> 00:02:08.429
when you're presenting.

00:02:08.429 --> 00:02:12.129
The other way to view and edit Notes can
be found on the View tab.

00:02:12.129 --> 00:02:15.840
Just click the Notes page command

00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:19.540
and you can focus on the notes for each
one of the time.

00:02:19.540 --> 00:02:25.240
To navigate, use the arrow keys on your keyboard or the scroll bar on the right.

00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:30.340
You can also type your notes directly
into the text box; and go ahead and zoom in

00:02:30.340 --> 00:02:35.610
and if you need to here.

00:02:35.610 --> 00:02:37.200
In addition to notes view,

00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:41.640
PowerPoint give you a couple more
ways to prepare and manage your slides.

00:02:41.640 --> 00:02:45.640
For example, if you've ever written an
outline for something at work or school

00:02:45.640 --> 00:02:49.010
you'll probably like this next feature.

00:02:49.010 --> 00:02:53.450
All you have to do is click the command
that says Outline View

00:02:53.450 --> 00:02:57.349
and the left pane will display an
outline version of all the text in your slides.

00:02:57.349 --> 00:03:02.269
This makes it easy to review the
contents of your presentation and you

00:03:02.269 --> 00:03:06.910
can also edit text from here if you need to.

00:03:06.910 --> 00:03:11.500
To exit this, view click the Normal
command at the bottom of the window

00:03:11.500 --> 00:03:14.270
or here on the View tab.

00:03:14.270 --> 00:03:21.650
The other thing I'd like to do is organize my slides into sections, which can make them easier to navigate.

00:03:21.650 --> 00:03:26.129
In this example we have sort of a
two-part presentation. First there are

00:03:26.129 --> 00:03:29.369
dogs and then there are cats and other
pets.

00:03:29.369 --> 00:03:33.020
So i think I'm going to create a section for each.

00:03:33.030 --> 00:03:36.380
Select the side where you want your
first section to begin

00:03:36.380 --> 00:03:38.850
then go to the Home tab

00:03:38.850 --> 00:03:41.440
Click the Section command,

00:03:41.440 --> 00:03:47.190
and choose Add Section from the menu. To name this section while it's still selected

00:03:47.190 --> 00:03:49.790
click the command again, then go ahead and choose Rename.

00:03:49.790 --> 00:03:53.400
We're going to call this one Dogs

00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:57.320
to make it easy to tell the
sections apart

00:03:57.320 --> 00:04:01.640
Next I'm going to repeat the process to
create another section later in the presentation.

00:04:04.200 --> 00:04:11.250
It's going to start with this slide here

00:04:11.250 --> 00:04:17.070
and it's going to be called Cats and Small pets.

00:04:17.420 --> 00:04:21.200
Now we can expand and collapse each section

00:04:21.200 --> 00:04:27.020
using the tiny arrows next to each
section name.

00:04:27.020 --> 00:04:28.220
As you can see,

00:04:28.220 --> 00:04:32.580
sections are a great way to break up your
presentation so you can can display only the

00:04:32.580 --> 00:04:35.100
side you're currently working with.

00:04:35.100 --> 00:04:38.940
Now you know several different ways to
prepare and manage slides.

00:04:38.940 --> 00:04:46.020
How you use these features is up to you, but they're bound to come in handy as you continue working in PowerPoint
