Editor's Notes
Students’ second slide will be empty except for a text box that says “RESIZE ME.” They should practice resizing the text box, then they should delete that slide and add a new slide. Start the 2nd slide with this slide content.
Have them save their file on the computer…explain the fact that Office 2003 is unable to open Office 2007 docs unless they are saved in a compatible version.
Have student try different layouts
In this slide students should understand the process of selecting text, by using both the mouse to drag-highlight, and using the Ctrl-A function. Also the right-click formatting menu should be demo’d. Have students highlight and adjust text font, font color, and styles.
