3 3 The New Interface of PowerPoint 2016 This version of PowerPoint introduces a new way to navigate through your tools to edit your presentation: the Ribbon.

There are the basic Tabs (Home, Insert, Design, Transitions, Animations, Slide Show and View) which have a default set of tools.

4 4 PowerPoint Views Slide Show View Normal View Slide Sorter View The 3 buttons in the bottom left corner of the PowerPoint window help change how information is displayed on the screen: Normal View organizes the layout in three parts: outline on left, slide on right, and notes section on bottom. Slide Sorter displays miniature versions of a slide for changing the order, transition and timing of your slide show. Slide Show plays the slide show from the currently selected slide. Slide Masters Use the Masters feature in PowerPoint to help develop consistency in your presentation by adding a new style/format to one slide and have it apply to all slides in the presentation.

5 5 With the Masters feature you can: Change the default typeface style and color for all slides in a presentation Add a company logo, name, department or date to a presentation Add headers, footers and notes to all slides in a presentation To open Slide Master mode: Saving 1. Go to View > Slide Master (OR hold down the Shift key and click on the Normal View button in the bottom left corner of the screen). 2. Click again on the Normal View button to exit Masters.

9 9 Formatting Text Change the color, size and spacing between lines using PowerPoint s text formatting tools. The Home Tab provides access to many of the commonly used text format tools. Font Group: The Font group contains tools to edit the font type, sizing, styling, color, and effects. Paragraph Group: Here you can manage the tools for text alignment, text direction, line spacing, bullets and lists and columns within a text box. Format Group: Here you can manage the tools to do quick formatting of the text box itself, using the preformatted Quick Styles or by using the Fill and Line tools.

Custom animations allow the presenter to control how and when the content is shown on a slide. To add an animation to a slide object, select the object to apply the animation.

17 17 o Duration: Duration determines how quickly or slowly the animation occurs. The longer the duration, the slower the effect of the animation. o Animation Order: In the Custom Animation palette you can change the order the animations occur by selecting it in the list and then using the arrow buttons in the palette to move the selected animation in the list. Slide Transitions Use the Slide Transition tool to set the format for transitioning from one slide to the next. The default transition doesn t involve any special effects. 1. Select the slide you would like to apply the transition to. Remember that the transition applies to the selected slide and the slide before it. 2. Select a series of slides by holding the Command key and clicking on the slides to apply the transition to. 3. Go to the Transitions tab and select a transition to apply. 4. The selected Transition may have some additional Effect Options, which can be selected from the pulldown list. 5. The speed of the transition can be adjusted in Duration. Shorter durations produce quick transitions while longer durations produce slower transitions.

18 18 6. In the Advance Slide group select whether or not you want to advance the slide with a Mouse Click or automatically After a # of seconds. 7. Once the transition is selected in the gallery, it is applied to the current slide. To apply the transition to the entire presentation, select All Slides.

Set Up Show: Select whether or not you want to show your slide show manually or automatically. 1. Go to the Slide Show tab and select Set Up Show. 2.

Presenter View: Usually a presentation is mirrored on the computer and on the projected screen. Presenter View allows the presenter to see, on the computer, the current slide, the next slide, the lineup of all of the slides in the presentation, and any notes accompanying the slides.
