Microsoft PowerPoint

Microsoft PowerPoint is an application software that helps us to create our own presentations.
A presentation consists of one or more pages, each page is known as a slide. MS PowerPoint
has the capability to create a complete presentation by creating a set of slides. PowerPoint
allows you to create presentations with graphics, written outlines, cutting and pasting objects,
and almost any style using almost any multimedia resource.

A presentation can help us in various ways.

• It can help students to learn faster. The slides prepared by using presentation software
are more legible and reliable than student notes on the main points.
• Presentation software can help teachers to present an idea in a qualitatively diff erent
way through the use of photographs, videos, diagrams or animations.
