Advantages of Presentation Software:
Presentation software give users great advantages by allowing them to present information though text, video, audio, picture graphic, and animations. You have all types of people that learn in different ways. By having a software that allows you to teach many different formats really helps student to learn more easily. The disadvantage of using this kind of software comes in play when it is used incorrectly. The presentation has to be put together in a way to have everything from audio to graphic connect to each other. The slide can not be too congested or the student will not retain the information presented.
How to use PowerPoint:
I would use PowerPoint in a nonlinear format so that user can go from one idea to the next. I will make the presentation exciting my adding audio, video, graphics, along with text so the readers don't get bored. I truly believe by adding these additional things to a slide grabs the readers attention and keep them from drifting. PowerPoint is a great tool to help students learn when they actually have to put together a presentation of information. When student are given the task to organize something, they learn more from trying to organize the information than just having it presented to them.
I have used PowerPoint before, but mainly for basic functions. Now that I have learned many other functions and how to design a presentation that will be effective in teaching I absolutely love it. I want to learn more about the use of PowerPoint and how to make it even more effective in teaching and presenting. I can see myself using power point as a study tool for myself, by creating and organizing information in to a slide show and learn more that way.
