Benefits of using Digital Content

• Is attention grabbing, more engaging, and interesting due to the use of graphics, animations and videos.

• Better understanding by students due to visualization.

• If PPT slides are shared with students via moodle CMS or email, students can pay attention to understand the concept instead of copying notes from board.

Topics• Basics of creating Powerpoint presentations.

– Creating a new PPT, Adding slides – Views and zoom, Adding text , Color, font, size and styles – Bullets and numbering, Slide layout

• Adding multimedia – Adding images and clipart, moving images to front and back. – Adding videos– Making diagrams and flowcharts, connecting objects, grouping objects – Giving 3D effect to shapes– Rotating and aligning objects

• Animation– Animation in text and objects in slide – Animation in slide transition

• Misc – Adding slide number – Copy paste slides across PPTs– Saving in different (read-only) formats (PPS, PDF)

• Creating Content for special subjects– Mathematics– Electrical/electronics– Chemistry
