  • In this video I explain what Narration in PowerPoint is, and why you;d want to use it (if you're a teacher it's especially useful). I then go on to show you exactly how to set it up, how it works, how to pause it, and how to include things like slide timings, animation timings and even pen annotations.

    With face to face classes cancelled due to COVID-19, I am having to go to on-line methods of teaching. Since I use Powerpoints extensively, this is most helpful.

    Perfect timing as I need to present and cannot have a large group present with the current COVID -19 precautions. Very easy to understand.

  • @ebenthuralayilabraham1029

    Thank you so much indeed for taking the time and putting the effort to provide a basic idea about narrated PowerPoint. I have seen this presentation repeatedly as your pace in teaching is great. It is absorbed instantly. Keep up your good work.

    This is the best of all the ones I've watched. It answered an important question near the end: powerpoint automatically goes slide to slide if you make sure to click the right button for automatic, not manual.

    Really helpful as I move my lectures fully online in response to COVID-19 directives. I already have the Powerpoint slides created for each lecture, and now am adding my audio comments. Almost as good as face-to-face lectures, and students can access at their convenience, as many times as they wish. Thanks!
