Unit 1 Task 4

Unit 1 Task 4 - PowerPoint for Dummies


  1. Open up PowerPoint. After this you will see two text boxes, one for a title and the other for a subtitle. Click on both boxes and then add your desired text.
  2. If you wish to add a picture to your presentation you can either copy and paste one in from another source or click on 'File' and then 'Open Image' and then choose the picture you wish to use.
  3. Now that your title slide is completed, you must add a new slide to your presentation. To do this you must click on 'New Slide' which is located just beneath the home button. Click on both text boxes in this slide and add whatever content you wish to include.
  4. If you would like to add numbers or bulletpoints you must find the paragraph section on the home toolbar, it is located just under 'Review' and 'View'
  5. Once you have completed your first few slides, you might want to add a design. They just change the colour schemes and the font and could help you to personalise your presentation even further. If you want to do this then click on the 'Design' button and choose your preferred one.
  6. If you wish to watch your slide when you have finished it then just click the F5 button on your keyboard and it will come up in full screen.
