A division makes it easier for you to structure the content of your presentation and to divide for meaningful topics / chapters. It is not always easy to combine spontaneous interactivity, like questions of your audience with a well-structured PowerPoint presentation. We will show you how.
First you need to think about the purpose of your presentation. Would you like to inform, entertain or persuade your listener – or maybe all in one?
The goal of your presentation also determines the structure of your content.
Motivate your audience at the beginning of your presentation to participate actively and interact with questions to create the presentation with you. To do so you should communicate clearly the benefits of an interactive presentation. Respond to counter questions from the audience. The same applies of course also for you: involve your audience in your presentation by asking questions. By keeping the presentation interactive you raise the attention of the audience. Repeat your key messages and visualize them by reviewing the slide once more, which is helpful to transmit that message. Another possibility is to include external web pages and videos in your presentation.
Learn here how you make an interaction possible:
Think about a good structure for your presentation first of all by topic. As PowerPoint experts, we recommend the use of tabs for structuring your presentation content. Create an outline in advance: via a navigation with tabs you can jump through previous links at any time with one click between slides in your presentation and chapters back and forth without leaving the presentation mode. To answer counter-questions from the audience you can call up the relevant topic slide and use it as the basis to answer your questions. You can also use the tabs as multimedia buttons by linking to external web sites or included videos in your presentation. The tabs can be found in our shop.
Your advantages in an overview:
1. Perfect structure: Structure your presentation content
2. Great interactivity: Navigate through your presentation with tabs
3. Exact status display: the tabs will show you the slide you are currently on.

Do you have to be present to make a presentation? Not necessarily – at least not with PowerPoint. Here you can prepare the entire presentation in advance. By presetting effects and background voice, the file can be easily played by anyone and reaching your audience without your presence.
In the menu under “slide show” you’ll find the command “Record Narration”, after selecting, you automatically start the presentation and speak into an appropriate recording device. Once you are done with the slide or animation, you go to the next and you record the necessary information for the slide content. Simultaneously the recording time saves the display time. At the end of the presentation you confirm that you wish to keep the display time.
In addition to spoken recording, you can import background music – if your sound card supports this action. A little tip: save the music in a different file format than the text (for example, WAV and MP3). This is the best way to avoid a stutter.

There is a new feature in PowerPoint 2010 that allows you to share a presentation with others via broadcast. With “PowerPoint Broadcast” your audience doesn’t even need to be in the same room to attend a specific presentation in the future.
There should be already an audio connection – by telephone conference call you can attend to your audience, and then you invite them via the appropriate command into your presentation. Your audience will see the presentation then on their screen while you retain control. Late comings can also be included, by receiving invitations. Broadcast -> Send Invitations
This feature can be connected to the function with the recording that we’ll introduce in our blog as well. If the audio connection between you and your audience wouldn’t work, you can still introduce your presentation this way.
