First Portfolio Assignment: Web Presentation

Your first of eight graded portfolio assignments over the course of the semester is to create a web-based Power Point presentation. Here are specific details:

• Topic of presentation may be anything that interests you. (If you are having difficulty starting, feel free to work with the Autocontent wizard).

• Presentations should be between at least 15 and 20 slides in length.

• Each slide should contain either a slide transition, a sound, background music, character animation, or an animation effect.

• Include at least one action button and one hyperlink.

• Feel free to "spice up" your presentation in any way that interests you. Try to bring in the other elements we have learned. Remember, eventually, you will be graded on a revised version of this assignment.

Important: Ensure that you always keep a back-up copy of the latest version of your presentation in its original "Power Point" format.

Important: Make sure that you fully read the Guide to FTP and Web Pages before you convert your power point presentation into web format. Also ensure that the "organize supporting files in a folder" box is checked [Tools --> Options --> General --> Web Options].
