POWERPOINTING THE WAY
Creative & effective use of PowerPoint in the Liturgy

The multi-media age is here to stay. Microsoft PowerPoint software has revolutionised the way presentations are given in the work place - now it's in our classrooms and increasingly in our prayer times... with varying degrees of success.

Our PowerPointing the Way INSET course explores how Microsoft PowerPoint can be used effectively to enhance liturgy and collective worship. This is a course that we have developed in response to many requests from teachers and liturgists across the country who have seen the regular use of this audio-visual technology in our own work and ministry.

Who should attend
This course focuses not so much on the basics of using PowerPoint, but on using it effectively as an aid to prayer rather than a distraction. No previous knowledge of PowerPoint is required, but a reasonable level of computer literacy and terminology is assumed.

 

Course Overview
This is a hands-on course, limited to a maximum of 30 places. Delegates are required to bring a lap-top PC with CD-Rom drive and an installed version of Microsoft PowerPoint (2000 or later).

SESSION ONE
Delegates are guided step-by-step through the process of designing a presentation for a liturgy, learning how to:
Create effective backgrounds and slide masters
Apply useful design and formatting principles for different types of slide
Animate slide contents and slide transitions
SESSION TWO
Delegates will explore the powerful combination of images and music, learning how to:
Import and play music within PowerPoint presentations
Time slides to change automatically
Create an automated audio-visual presentation
using images, words and music
   
COURSE MATERIALS
Delegates receive a comprehensive course pack, with step-by-step course notes, tips and information about useful equipment and resources, and a CD-Rom of presentation templates, images, and songs.
