Handouts

I was told that there is a way to hide information on slides being printed out for students. I can't work it out.
Do you have any ideas on how to do this as I really don't know?

Thanks,
Kate

RE: Handouts

Hi Kate

Thank you for your question.

Are you referring to information that is on slides in the presentation; or how to hide notes that are written to go with the slides?

RE: Handouts

Hi Amanda,

I mean the information on the slides that you can print for handouts. It's useful to 'hide' words / sentences if you want delegates to think about what the answers may be.

RE: Handouts

Hi Kate

Thanks for clarifying this.

What I would do is have a slide with what you want to show the students; then the next slide with answers on it. Then you can create a custom show which has the slides in it that you want to include in the handout for the students, and print the custom show.

To create a custom show, go to Slide Show/Custom Show.

Click New. Name your custom show.

A list of all the slides in your presentation will be listed on the left. Select the first slide you want to include in the handout, and use the arrow button >> in the middle to copy it to the box on the right. Repeat this until all the slide you want in the handout are shown on the right. Then click OK, and close.

Then go to File/Print and under Print range you should see your custom show name displayed. Select the Custom Show radio button under Print Range and click OK to print.

I hope this helps.
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Make an impact with your opening

Setting a few slides on a continous loop before beginning a presentation can help to set the presentation tone for the audience and build audience anticipation and curiosity.

Once you have created your opening presentation slides, open the presentation and go to Slide Show - Set Up Show, then tick the Loop continuously until "Esc" box.

Put the presentation into slideshow view then press the Esc key when you are ready to begin your actual presentation.
