The Notes pane is located right below the actual slide within the PowerPoint 2011 interface. This area provides space to add speaker’s notes that can be so helpful to the presenter while presenting — the Notes pane can be also used to write any sort of information about the presentation or individual slides. When there are no notes added for a particular slide, the Notes Pane just displays the “Click to add notes” boilerplate text.
