Non-Linear Powerpoint

Tomorrow we will start our unit over presentation software.  The first part will be a review over powerpoint, but with a different spin.  Generally we make powerpoints as sequential presentation visual aids.  You click on a slide, it takes you to the next, you click and that slide, it takes you to the next.......  For this project, students will be creating a non-linear powerpoint.  Appropriate slide layout rules still apply, and the difference lies in the presentation being interactive for the user.  An example could be the first slide being a map of a place you want to visit.  You can click on the name of a location, it takes you to a slide telling you information and showing pictures, then you can click back to return to the map.  You can then find another location to choose.

Students non-linear powerpoint is over a school appropriate topic of their choice, and should have a minimum of 15 slides.  One of the slides needs to be a work cited page that shows where you got information and pictures.  I will help you with any questions you have on the project EXCEPT you will have to troubleshoot to figure out how to link the non-sequential slides.  Remember that google.com is NOT a source, so don't try using it!  Be as creative as you can, and have fun with this project!
