Introducing PowerPointMicrosoft PowerPoint 2002 is a program that enables you to create robust presentations. A presentation consists of a series of slides. Each slide contains content, including text, images, charts, and other objects, such as animations, audio, and video. PowerPoint presentations can be simple or complex, but they all follow some basic steps. First, plan out your presentation. Decide what you want to include and in what order you want to present the information. Next, create your slides. You can create slides from sophisticated templates, or start with blank slides and add formatting and effects to give your presentation a unique look. Finally, review and rehearse. Always check your slides for any errors, and add any special effect which will add sizzle to your presentation. Practicing your presentation will give you confidence when it comes time to give your presentation in front of an audience.
