LECTURE:
Preview of Lab Due Sept 10-14 Week: PowerPoint Presentation. Example
Everyone should be giving their presentations in lab Sept 10-14. Try out your presentation on the computer in the lab BEFORE your lab and give yourself time to fix it if needed! The labs have MS Office 2010, so older versions PowerPoint Presentation should work, or convert the file with zamzar.com. If you are sick or have an accident and have to miss lab, notify your lab instructor BEFORE LAB or you will earn no credit (zero) if you are absent.
You may also use Google Docs Presentations (you need a Google Account) (more here).
