After designing your learning material and quizzes for an online course within Adobe Presenter, you would want to know how this online course will help the learners grasp the content better. Although, the LMS (Learning Management System) provides details about course completion and quiz results, it does not show the learners’ progress. To overcome this issue, Adobe Presenter offers a Learning Analytics dashboard that empowers instructors with the ability to detect potential learning problems and to intervene early-improving the chances for learners to meet and even exceed their expectations.

PowerPoint does not provide any built-in tool for highlighting text — but you can use Microsoft Word to help you with a workaround. Now imagine that you have hundreds of slides and you need to similarly highlight more text. Working repeatedly with Word for all text highlighting across so many slides can be painful. Fortunately, you can tackle this issue easily by using the Format Painter option within PowerPoint, which let you copy the highlighting for text and also helps in removing the highlight altogether.

And Pixabay, the site we are reviewing today actually exceeds those requirements because not only are the pictures high quality, but they are free as well!

First of all, PowerPoint 2013 or any of the previous versions do not support text highlighting. And before we explore getting over this limitation, let’s ask ourselves why do we need to highlight a text? If you want to emphasize some important words within your slide, then the highlighting may indeed help. However, unlike Microsoft Word, PowerPoint doesn’t have a ready-made tool to highlight text — but you can use Word’s highlighting options as a workaround!
