Videos can add interest and demonstrate key things
you are talking about. 1. Insert
a new slide 2. Click
Insert, Video, Video on My PC. You can search for a video on youtube—plus
you can search for videos on your google drive (I believe there is a way to get
a video from your own hard drive there too in google drive). The Video will appear like this: You can make the video bigger (or smaller) by
grabbing and dragging the little blue box in the corner. You can adjust the start and end time of the video
in the fields on the right side of the screen. How To Make your Bullets Appear One at a Time
If you show a slide with
all the bullets and pictures on screen at once, people will read and look at

do this:
Have text and pictures? Want to go back and forth from text to pictures?You
will need to insert a textbook for text that will appear after a picture. Then
animate the text, picture, text, picture (as it should appear on the screen). Your
animation order will appear on the right side. Want
the animation to go in a different order? Click the 6 gray circles and move
up or down. How to
Theme your Google Slides
Give
your Google Slides a great look beyond the standard black text on white
background. Click
Slide, Change Themes—Then Choose a Theme on the right side of the screen. Note that when you switch the theme—you
may need to change the color of fonts (here the black font should be changed
to white font for good contrast)—also, you may need to increase your font
size. |
