Microsoft PowerPoint
PowerPoint is a computer program that allows you to create and show slides to support a presentation. You can combine text, graphics and multi-media content to create professional presentations for a range of uses. PowerPoint has accessibility features such as subtitles which help you make videos and presentations more accessible for other people.
Microsoft PowerPoint will allow you to:
-
Organise and structure presentations.
-
Create a professional-looking and consistent format for your slides.
-
Provide an illustrative backdrop for the content of your presentation.
-
Animate your slides to give them a greater visual impact.
-
Provide subtitles to presentation in a range of languages.
-
Rehearse presentations and receive in-app coaching.
-
Use a teleprompter to capture recordings of your presentations in order to create video that includes PowerPoint slides and your audio and\or webcam.
PowerPoint is accessible as a desktop application and as an online version via Office.com. Functionality differs slightly between the two so it’s worth trying both options.
