  • The idea is simply to switch off the way that PowerPoint goes from slide to slide in a typical, lecturer driven presentation and replace the navigation with hyperlinks, just like a website!

  • The hyperlink and other methods are covered on these pages (slides) and the slides under the settings menu cover the change needed there, the settings are stored with the presentation, they don't effect the PowerPoint program itself.

  • In simple terms, to create a resource like this one, where the different slides are linked to by clicking buttons etc. we have to do two things;







When you point to a hyperlink, the pointer becomes a hand, indicating that it is something you can click. Text that represents a hyperlink is also displayed underlined and in a colour.

  • To set a text hyperlink first select the text then either right-click the selected text and pick either “Hyperlink” or “Action settings”, or select Hyperlink from the Insert menu. You may need to select the option for “place in this document” to see a list of slides to link to.

  • To use a picture or GIF type animation as a hyperlink first select it then either right-click it and pick either “Hyperlink” or “Action settings”, or select Hyperlink from the Insert menu while the object is still selected. You may need to select the option for “place in this document” to see a list of slides to link to. If the slide has a title then this will be displayed rather than the slide number, be careful though, don’t include any form of punctuation or special characters in the title of a slide you want to link to.







































The resource site in one file, can be easily stored, emailed, hosted on an e-learning platform and even password protected if needed.

  • The resource site in one file, can be easily stored, emailed, hosted on an e-learning platform and even password protected if needed.

  • Easier than a conventional webpage to construct and uses transferable skills, building on existing PowerPoint skills.

  • Simple to put colour and movement in.

  • Allows us to be innovative about structure and delivery or the resource.

  • Browse-able by people with minimal IT skills, just like any web type resource.

  • Can be saved as raw HTML if the more complex features of PowerPoint are avoided.























If your picture is smaller than the canvas you can reduce the size of the white canvas by clicking on the white area then clicking and dragging the bottom right corner.

If designing a resource along with others the rough outline helps collaborators share and buy into a common view, hopefully they will then be pulling in roughly the same direction.

If the slide has a title it is easier to recognise it when linking to it.

  • If the slide has a title it is easier to recognise it when linking to it.

  • Only certain types of slide offer a title for you to fill in when they are created, so if you want a blank slide but also want to title it then you can create a title only slide, type in the title but then set the text colour for the title to the same as the background so it can't be seen.

  • Be careful, the linking system doesn't work if you try to link to a slide with certain punctuation in the title! Don't ask me why not, and it might not be a problem in some versions but in PowerPoint 2003 this is an issue. The title of this slide is realy "Naming slides secret names and traps" however, the one you see has all kinds of punctuation in it.

  • If you open this presentation in edit mode you’ll see that the title isn't “Naming slides, secret names and traps. (Tricks and traps when naming slides.)” but is actually “Naming slides secret names and traps”, this title is hidden from the user by making the font colour the same as this slides’ background, the title the user sees is realy just a text box. While not an essential trick it can be useful in complex resources to help the author keep track!



















Putting a yes/no or other selectable link after the question, the link takes the user to a slide saying the answer is correct or not. These feedback slides can be common and just link back to the "last slide viewed". This method is simple but can lead to a lot of slides. (To link back to the previous slide viewed right click the button or item that activates the link and use the Action Settings menu to hyperlink to "last slide viewed".)

  • Use the trigger technique to give answers and feedback, this works well and allows quite in depth feedback but is complex to set up and may not transfer well to HTML if the resource is to be converted later. (Example)

  • Use the "Highlight click" action setting in older versions BUT it doesn't work if viewed in version 2007. This enables the answer to be hidden on the slide and revealed when an area is clicked on. The first two methods are covered in this tutorial though not in the context of testing, the last is explained here. This is an excellent system that works well in versions prior to Office 2007. Unfortunately it appears to be interpreted differently in this later version! however there is a workround.



Bar charts show categorical data, there is no continuous progression between one bar and the next hence the bars not touching. (True/False?)

  • Bar charts show categorical data, there is no continuous progression between one bar and the next hence the bars not touching. (True/False?)

  • Histograms are for data that is continuous or in continuous groups, e.g. age 0-9,10-19,20-29... (True/False?)

  • What kind of graph is the graph below?
