00:00:11.610 --> 00:00:15.950
Everything you need to give a smooth, professional
presentation - from advancing the slides,

00:00:15.950 --> 00:00:20.320
to using special presentation tools - starts
with the PowerPoint slide show.

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:23.419
All you have to do is go to Slide Show…

00:00:23.419 --> 00:00:25.150
From Beginning.

00:00:25.150 --> 00:00:29.450
Or switch to Slide Show View at the bottom
of your screen.

00:00:29.450 --> 00:00:32.910
This is exactly what I'll be sharing with
the audience at tonight's event.

00:00:32.910 --> 00:00:37.460
To control my presentation, I like to use
the arrow keys on my keyboard to advance the

00:00:37.460 --> 00:00:42.210
slides… or reverse them.

00:00:42.210 --> 00:00:46.190
You can also use the menu in the bottom left
corner that appears only when you hover over

00:00:46.190 --> 00:00:47.190
it.

00:00:47.190 --> 00:00:52.040
This gives you easy access to navigation…
and other tools that can help you during your

00:00:52.040 --> 00:00:53.040
presentation.

00:00:53.040 --> 00:00:57.650
For example, have you ever wanted to share
something else with your audience while using

00:00:57.650 --> 00:00:58.739
PowerPoint?

00:00:58.739 --> 00:01:01.460
Maybe a website, or a file in another program?

00:01:01.460 --> 00:01:05.990
You can access your task bar from this menu
by going to Screen…

00:01:05.990 --> 00:01:07.790
Switch Programs.

00:01:07.790 --> 00:01:11.860
For me, this means we can share information
from the school's website without having to

00:01:11.860 --> 00:01:14.750
end the slide show or exit PowerPoint.

00:01:14.750 --> 00:01:19.780
When you're ready, just close or minimize
the program to go back.

00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:24.080
The menu that allowed us to switch programs
can also be accessed by right-clicking anywhere

00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:25.490
on the screen.

00:01:25.490 --> 00:01:29.229
Go to Slide is another presentation tool I
use pretty frequently.

00:01:29.229 --> 00:01:34.650
It lets you jump to any slide in your presentation
- perfect for skipping ahead.

00:01:34.650 --> 00:01:38.590
Now would a good time for me to practice using
the pen and highlighter tools.

00:01:38.590 --> 00:01:39.860
How do they work?

00:01:39.860 --> 00:01:44.460
Just click to open the menu here, and you
can change your mouse pointer to a Pen or

00:01:44.460 --> 00:01:48.320
a Highlighter to draw attention to items on
your slides.

00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:54.610
For instance, during the 2010-2011 school
year, gift wrapping was the most successful

00:01:54.610 --> 00:01:57.430
fundraiser, earning nearly $2000.

00:01:57.430 --> 00:01:58.759
See how it works?

00:01:58.759 --> 00:02:01.590
Let's try the pen tool.

00:02:01.590 --> 00:02:08.869
Here we can see that funds raised by the doughnut
sale went down, to slightly less than $1500.

00:02:08.869 --> 00:02:13.620
Use the same menu if you want to erase all
the ink on your current slide, or switch back

00:02:13.620 --> 00:02:15.670
to the mouse pointer.

00:02:15.670 --> 00:02:20.069
I'm ready to wrap this up, so I'm just going
to end the slide show by clicking End Show

00:02:20.069 --> 00:02:21.900
on the presentation menu.

00:02:21.900 --> 00:02:24.790
You can also press Esc on your keyboard.

00:02:24.790 --> 00:02:28.810
Before we leave, PowerPoint is going to ask
if we want to keep the ink markings we just

00:02:28.810 --> 00:02:29.810
made.

00:02:29.810 --> 00:02:33.380
I'm going to keep them for now - which means
they stay on the slide, but can be deleted

00:02:33.380 --> 00:02:35.390
any time.

00:02:35.390 --> 00:02:39.250
There's one more thing I want to show you
that might help you with your presentation.

00:02:39.250 --> 00:02:44.510
If you go to Slide Show, then the Set Up Slide
Show command, you can access settings that

00:02:44.510 --> 00:02:47.260
control how your presentation is played.

00:02:47.260 --> 00:02:50.980
For example, if you ever needed to set up
a slide show that would run by itself on a

00:02:50.980 --> 00:02:56.350
continuous loop - maybe at a kiosk or trade
show booth - this is the place to do it.

00:02:56.350 --> 00:03:00.170
Take some time to explore the rest of the
Set Up options on your own, and don't be afraid

00:03:00.170 --> 00:03:01.569
to experiment.

00:03:01.569 --> 00:03:05.709
With a little practice - and with so many
tools at your disposal - you'll be an expert

00:03:05.709 --> 00:03:29.090
PowerPoint presenter in no time.
