Microsoft PowerPoint is useful to prepare visuals for oral presentations, to make posters, or to
make illustrations to insert in text documents, etc. The purpose of the present exercise is to make

A brief introduction to using MS PowerPoint is given in the [PowerPoint Guide] available under
the tool “Compendia: Software Manuals” in the Animal Genetics Training Resource.

Ask students to follow the PowerPoint Guide step by step to explore some of the options in
Power Point, as regards:
1. Producing a visual – starting from a blank page
2. Producing a visual – starting from an auto-layout

a number of the features available. As an exercise for students, provide a paper copy of your

read in the PowerPoint Guide, and also to use the Help function in PowerPoint where needed.
