In our continuing series that teaches you PowerPoint, we added this article that is relevant to all versions of PowerPoint—it’s an introduction to animation.
In the simplest sense, animation is something that makes slide objects move on a slide. And slide objects can be anything on a slide—these include text, pictures, charts, SmartArt graphics, shapes, and even movie clips.
In this series of learning tutorials, we’ll show you how you can add animation, and then remove, change, reorder, and sequence animation. You’ll learn more about the types of animation and animation speed too.
Learn about animation, and how to effectively plan animation for PowerPoint.

TechSmith’s Camtasia Studio product may be branded as a screen recording program, but that description doesn’t do it much justice, since we consider it to be the Swiss Army Knife of video capture, editing, and sharing. At Indezine, we have been users of Camtasia Studio for a long time, and any new release of this product is an opportunity for us to play with the new features.

Creating a quiz in PowerPoint normally entails one of two approaches: the first is to learn VBA and code a quiz with responses, and the second is to keep things simple and create a basic quiz. Also, some users tend to use Flash based products like Quizmaker or YawnBuster for the quizzes, thus ending up with an embedded Flash quiz on their PowerPoint slides.
While all these approaches get the task done, a specialized product like Atrixware’s PowerPoint Quizmaker can help create quizzes that look like they were created in PowerPoint without having to spend long hours creating them.
