Many Ways that PowerPoint is a Wonderful Tool in High Schools 1. Jeopardy!

Using the Jeopardy template, teachers can put important questions and answers into the blanks, and use it as a very fun way to help students study.

2. Lecture Points

Teachers can make PowerPoints with important information from their lectures to help keep themselves on track, and to help students know what to take notes on.

3. Help Students Take Notes

If you print out PowerPoint lectures with three slides per page, the slides are on the left side of the page, and the right side has empty lines for students to take extra notes.

4. Posters and Large Displays

To make posters and other large displays look more neat and professional. students can print out the slides with one slide per page, and glue them onto the board.

5. Alternative Research "Paper"

Sometimes it is good to change things up a bit. Instead of a research "paper," teachers can have their students use PowerPoint to make a presentation of the information, instead of a paper. It is more interesting, more fun for the students, they can add colored pictures, and share them with the class. (And as a bonus for teachers, it is quicker to grade!)

6. Useful Even in the Real World

Mastering PowerPoint can be a very helpful skill for students when looking to get a job. It is an easy way to impress bosses, and get better jobs in the long run.
