<p>For this assignment, you will create a short PowerPoint presentation that includes several objects as well as slide transitions. In this assignment, imagine you have been asked to present at the next staff meeting. You know you will have lots of data tables and sales figures to discuss, but you also want to keep the mood light by having some humor in your presentation. So the first thing you will do is find some visuals to help break up the business discussion.</p>
<p>Follow the directions below:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open a new blank presentation. Save it to the Rowan folder on your desktop as <strong>BA132_LastName_NewPresentation.pptx</strong>, replacing “LastName” with your own last name. (Example: BA132_Ugwu_NewPresentation) It is a good idea to save your work periodically.</li>
<li>On the first slide, title the presentation “Module 9 Presentation” with your name in the subtitle box.<br/>

<h2>Check Your Understanding: Infographics and Custom Shapes</h2>
<div>
<p>In this PowerPoint module, we discussed a variety of visual tricks and tips such as inserting images and creating SmartArt graphics. With these tools and a little cleverness, you can also create your very own infographics!</p>
<p>Watch the first video below:</p>
<p><iframe data-mce-fragment="1" frameborder="0" height="450" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rmuqp1HiPgM?enablejsapi=1" width="660"></iframe></p>
</div>
<p>Now consider these questions: What applications might the techniques in this video have? How can you improve your presentations with this feature? Share your opinions below and respond to two of your classmates’ thoughts.</p>
<p>If you are interested in learning more, here are some other videos that build upon the first video to finish creating the infographic:</p>

<h2>Putting It Together</h2>
<p>Now that you know some of the more visual-based tricks in PowerPoint, let’s take a look at our opening list of possible presentation goals and match those with the skills you just learned.</p>
<ol>
<li>You want to show a clip from an advertising campaign. <em>You can achieve this by inserting the video and even trim it to a shorter segment.</em></li>
<li>You want to provide a visual introduction of newly hired employees. <em>You can easily insert headshots of the new employees, and can even use the grouping and arranging options to make sure everyone gets equal billing in photo size and position.</em></li>
<li>You want to illustrate a particular work process with several steps. <em>You can create a SmartArt graphic showing the work flow.</em></li>
</ol>
