 This video will show you how to use the basics of PowerPoint. To begin, go to your Start menu and click one time. Microsoft PowerPoint may be listed here or you may need to go to all programs. Click one time on Microsoft PowerPoint and the program will open. It automatically opens to a title slide, and the first thing we're going to do is go up to the toolbar and click on Design. You'll see that there are different options for designs, and if you click on them or just move your mouse over them, it'll show you what they look like. I'm going to choose this design. Then it says, click to add title. So I'm just going to click and then type the title of my presentation. Here it says click to add subtitle. I'm going to put my name in the subtitle. Now I want to add a new slide. So I need to go back to the toolbar, click on Home, and you'll see New Slide. If you click the top, it will automatically add a slide. If you click the bottom, it will give you different formats to choose from. I'm going to click the top and get a regular content slide. Here again, it says click to add title. So I'm going to put the heading for one of my categories. And then down here, I click to add text. You'll see this dot here, we call that a bullet. And usually the content for PowerPoints use bullets so that they're easier to read. So I click and type my content. And then I want another slide, so I go back to the toolbar and click on New Slide again, click to add title again, and click to add text. When I finish typing one line, I hit Enter on my computer and that takes me to the next line with a new bullet. So I have a title slide and two content slides. I can move these slides around. So if I decide I want education to come before salary, I click on Education, hold the button on my mouse, and just move Education up. So now Education is the second slide. If I want to make changes, I just click back to the slide, click where I want to make the change, and I'm going to add a word here, Certified Nursing Assistant. When I'm finished, I'm going to go up to File and click Save. It used my title for the name of the document. That's okay, but I'm going to add my last name so it's clear whose document it is. This is saving on my computer in documents. If you have a flash drive, you will click down to computer and you'll see your flash drive listed here. And then you click Save. It's still open, so I can still make changes. So for example, I think I'm going to change the font for the title and make it easier to read. So I click up here and says font, and I click the down arrow and it shows me a list of fonts. And if I click on them, they will show me what they look like. So I think I'm going to choose aerial. I made a change, so I want to save this document again. I can go back up to File and click on Save, or I can just click on the small disk, which is also a way to save. So both of those are ways to save. If I want to view my PowerPoint, I click on Slide Show. And it asks me if I want to start from the beginning or from the current slide. And usually I want to start from the beginning. So I click from beginning. And this is what my PowerPoint presentation will look like for my audience. So I can look at it and check my spelling. I can click and go to the next slide, click and go to the last slide. And if I click one more time, it tells me that I am at the end of the Slide Show, and I just need to click and exit and I'll go back to my work. So this is just the basics of PowerPoint. Good luck with your PowerPoint presentations.
