CONCLUSIONI have used PowerPoint in order to complete

certain projects, but I try to avoid it. Through this assignment I have gained a better understanding of how to operate PowerPoint. With this newly gained knowledge I will feel more comfortable about using this program.

I do plan on using PowerPoint when I become a teacher. I think it is a great tool to use when teaching, but I would prefer using a linear design over a non-linear design. In my opinion non-linear design is not completely necessary, but I am also very simple-minded when it comes to using technology. PowerPoint is a great program and a non-linear design does add a unique style to a useful teaching tool.
