    • Introduction

    • Welcome to Designing an Interactive Presentation. This is one of a number of units you will study on the Advance into FE course. 

      Being able to gather information and present it is a vital part of work and study. Modern presentation software allows information to be put together in an engaging and accessible way, using media such as sound, video and imagery. The more interesting and interactive the presentation, the more effective it will be to get your ideas across. 

      In this unit, you will develop the skills needed to create a presentation. You will learn how to select and use information to develop content, and how to use images, sound and video clips in a presentation.  

      You will get to use online internet tools, PowerPoint, Prezi and Zeetings and experience what they each offer in terms of interactivity.
