Classroom Presentation Software

Looking for software to help you create an interesting classroom presentation? Try any of the products below. Remember, your content or information comes first. Then add design elements such as photos, videos and transitions to make the content more interesting. Always keep your audience in mind. Will they be able to see and hear your presentation from across the room? If not, enlarge your font, bring external speakers, and add anything else you'll need to improve the presentation. Finally, add a "Works Cited" that includes all your sources (including photos) and proofread the presentation for any errors.
