Lesson 17

Getting Started (Introduction to Presentation, continued)

We will begin by creating a simple presentation (slide show) and then play it back. As you work through each activity, try to think up ideas for a unique presentation that you would like to share with others.

Part I

Before you begin capturing a slide show, you will need to enter a name for the presentation and make sure its radio button is on.
