I have put together a short tutorial which should facilitate your getting started with PowerPoint.

The tutorial can be accessed in 4 formats:

  1. PowerPoint Original (1.92MB) - will try to open in PowerPoint
  2. PowerPoint Show (1.89 MB) - will open in full screen mode
  3. Quicktime movie (3.0MB - links will be missing) use the pause button on the player to stop at each slide
  4. Webpage (big problems!)

The PowerPoint and PowerPoint Show format are the most useful because they maintain all of the internal links. However there are some problems with distributing a file as a native PowerPoint file. Can you guess/figure out what problems you might run into?

Distributing the file as a webpage has caused considerable problems particularly when trying to view these pages through Blackboard. It simply doesn't work!

Therefore to assure that students can see the presentation, even though it won't have any hyperlinks, it can be saved in a .mov format.
