Technology Education ppt.
I learned that power points are simple yet effective way to present graphics and text. When using power point you can add as many slides as you want. You can also edit the font size and the font type. Power point allows you to choose between various layouts and template designs. While creating your presentation you can add clip art from the insert menu, or you can add your own saved images. If you choose to change the order of your slides, then you simple change the order by dragging and dropping the selected slides. You can also add auto shapes of your choice to grab the reader's attention. When making a professional presentation, your template design should not interfere with your text on the slides. You should also include images and not too much text. When presenting never read directly from the slides, you should paraphrase. These are things that help create an effective power point presentation.

When desighning your blog you should have images that make it hard for people to read your posts as your background. Your text should be big enough to read, but not too big. You shouldn't have too many items on your page that makes it hard to load. You also shouldn't have too many focal points on your page. You should have a good amount of graphics on your page, but not to many. You should also have links that make it easier to navigate through your page. You text should be in colors that are easy to read and understand. To have a successful page it must be able to navigatable and neat. You shouldn't have your text and pictures unorganized throughout the page. I can improve my page by adding more graphics and more color. I could also have a little bit of animation.
