Reflection on Power Point

A power point is designed to create presentations consisting of a series of separate pages or slides. Unlike in the school using green board and chart, in the college one easiest way to present our work through power point. The first thing we need to understand about PowerPoint is the concept of slides. Slide is like a blank document, which presents ideas in the form of text, images, charts and animations. The first slide is the one which introduces the topic of the presentation; this is followed by a step by step sequence which has a specific start and a conclusion.

PowerPoint encourages and supports teaching learning process by facilitating the material presentation. It helps us to improve the clarity and the arrangement of a presentation. PowerPoint is able to perform a variety of manipulations, such as editing text before printing it out, and we can add new slides for adding new materials. PowerPoint can also help in explaining long concept in a shorter time using videos. It helps us to improve the learning motivation, increasing authentic materials for study, encouraging interaction between the teacher and the students.

Power Point is about making an impact that influences audience. To have that, we need to follow principles of PowerPoint presentations. Too many texts are not good for the audience instead we need to use simple slides and explain in such a way that can convey information with supporting the points to the audiences. Take the slide with five bullets and make five separate slides with either just a graphic that illustrates the point or a graphic and a word or two, but without a bullet point.

Thus based on these benefits, I would say using power point is an effective way to enhance learning process. Overall the class is always a successful using power point, I learned new things and enjoys every bit of information I gain in the class. The process of creating presentations is very easy using PowerPoint. PowerPoint can be used by anybody for effective communications. Graphics, charts, animation and movies can be used in presentations with the click of a button. PowerPoint can be used by students, teachers, professionals etc.
