GET READY: PowerPoint for Presentations
When:
—
Venue:
Birkbeck Main Building, Malet Street
At university, you will no doubt at some point be required to make presentations in some of your modules, and these presentations will often be assessed.
This session will introduce the basics of creating effective and engaging presentation slides using PowerPoint for those who have not used PowerPoint before, or who have tried it but struggled to use it effectively.
It will cover the basic principles of design, as well as the practical procedures for adding slides of different types, inserting images, adding and formatting text, adding animations (such as step by step bullet points), and how to use the slideshow features to present your slides.
This will be a practical ‘learn by doing’ session in which you will create a short presentation on a fun topic of your own choice.
Please note that this session takes place in person at Birkbeck. It will use PCs in an IT suite, but feel free to bring along your own laptop if you prefer.
