Working with Multimedia
One of the
best Christmas videos is the Polar Express, with Tom Hanks as the voice
of the conductor. It is the story of children who travel to the North
Pole in a special steam engine: No. 1225, the Pere Marquette. No. 1225
is the only steam engine named after a priest and it served for many
years in Michigan. Our PowerPoint presentation will use the Pere
Marquette as our theme. The images and videos will be used to teach how
to work with multimedia.
This lesson will present two
methods for working with videos in PowerPoint: linked and embedded.
Linking to a site like YouTube means that you
have to be online to play the video. Adding the video to your
presentation (embedding the multimedia) means you can play it anytime:
you do not have to be online So, let's look at the options.
