Chapter 5

In Chapter 5 it talks about Integrating Digital Media and Educational Software Applications. It actually touches on all of the aspects that make up a powerpoint, which is what our assignment was on this week. The book talks about text and it consists of characters that are used to create the words, sentences, and paragraphs that we use during our presentations. In powerpoint we use many graphics. Graphics are what make a presentation more interesting. Our book tells us that a graphic is a digital representation of nontext information, such as a drawing, chart, or photograph. To make a powerpoint presentation we use animation, which is my favorite feature of powerpoints. If you are really intense, you can add audio and even video.

Something new i learned this week was that you can add notes to the bottom of you powerpoints. For some reason i never noticed the feature, and I am guilty of putting all my information in my powerpoints so i do not have to memorize it.
