Power Point is used to show presentations to groups of people.

Microsoft PowerPoint allows you take data and images and put them together in a presentation that you either print or present using a screen projector. With PowerPoint, you can do fancy things like screen transitions, add pictures and create lists. When used appropriately, PowerPoint is an effective presentation tool.

Instructions

      Create a mockup of your presentation on paper. Once your mockup is complete, open a new presentation in PowerPoint and save it before you begin adding any information.

      Start your presentation by selecting a slide format under the slide "Layout" menu. Enter textual data and input a title. For each subsequent slide, select your layout and enter your text.

      Enter pictures using the "Picture with Caption" layout. Double-click on the area inside the picture frame and PowerPoint will prompt you to add a picture or image from a location on your computer. If you don't have images, insert clip art off the "Insert" menu. PowerPoint comes preloaded with clip art and photographs.

      Give your presentation some flare by setting up slide transitions. Slide transitions is one way for a slide to move one slide to the next. They can blur, have check boxes and horizontal/vertical/diagonal lines. Find these options in the "Animation" area of the presentation.
