TRED 701: Enhancing Teaching Through Technology
PowerPoint Presentation
Description of the Project:
A Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation which is created for parents and/or students. The focus is to be either "back to school night" or a field trip. Each presentation is to demonstrate certain features of Microsoft PowerPoint, such as graphics, sound, and various slide transitions.
My PowerPoint Presentation...
...is designed to provide a preview for a field trip by a high school class or Engineering Club. The field trip is to Oceaneering Technologies, a company that I worked for as a Mechanical Engineer. The presentation includes purpose, goals, agenda, and logistics information. Click here to see it…
