PowerPoint

Download the Carey PowerPoint template and follow the instructions below to customize it for your own use.

1. The PowerPoint Template document automatically opens to a cover slide that displays the school identity. This slide can be shown at the beginning and the end of the presentation.
2. To bring up different slide layouts, click on the arrow next to “New Slide” or the "Layout" icon in the left side of the menu bar at the top of your screen.
3. Then simply click on the type of slide you wish to use, and type in your information. Each slide is labeled with its intended use (title slide, slide with copy, slide with short paragraph followed by bullets, etc.)
4. A few tips:
   • Type in title, subtitle, and copy where indicated on each slide.
   • To create a bullet:
   - Type in copy you wish to bullet, inserting a return after each item, and highlight the copy with your mouse.
   - Click the bullet icon in the paragraph box in the top menu bar. Or, you can right click the mouse to select "bullets."
   - Then click the "increase list level/increase ident level" button (3rd button to the right of bullet button).
5. The six-column grid slide is a guide for spacing custom slides, to be used if you wish to create a slide in other than the pre-defined formats. You will need to space your content on the grid slide, and then copy all onto a blank slide. A blank slide can be created from one of the preset layouts and by deleting the preset copy box.
