In class Exercise
PowerPoint was one of the applications that I have used through out school since I was probably in middle school. I always had an easy time navigating through PowerPoint without any help. I have loved using this application because it is a unique and creative way to present any project. I also appreciate how easy it is to use because I hate when I am working on putting together a project for school and I can not figure out how to use the application, because to me that is a complete waste of my time, considering that I still have to put my actual project together.
Even though I already had a large amount of background information about PowerPoint, I did learn essential new information while in this class. For example, I really was unsure of how to add in transitions and animations correctly. Once Mr. Lewallen explained the proper way by using the different bars at the top of the application to personalize each one with the various amount of options, it made it extremely easier for me to comprehend. Then I also learned how to customize my printing options, because I had no idea how or that you had the option to print certain pages and tailor the layout that you wanted to print out before EDT 180.

Research Project Presentation
This Presentation for the research project was easy to put together because it was the last portion of the project, so we had all of the information and analysis already finished. It was exciting to see it finished because it was the summary of our entire project, which showed everything that we went through. Overall, creating this PowerPoint symbolized completion and was a sense of pride.
