Lesson 12: Presenting Your Slide Show Show /en/powerpoint2016/printing/content/ IntroductionOnce your slide show is complete, you'll need to learn how to present it to an audience. PowerPoint offers several tools and features to help make your presentation smooth, engaging, and professional. Optional: Download our practice presentation. Watch the video below to learn more about presenting your slide show. Presenting a slide showBefore you present your slide show, you'll need to think about the type of equipment that will be available for your presentation. Many presenters use projectors during presentations, so you might want to consider using one as well. This allows you to control and preview slides on one monitor while presenting them to an audience on another screen. To start a slide show:There are several ways you can begin your presentation:
To advance and reverse slides:You can advance to the next slide by clicking your mouse or pressing the spacebar on your keyboard. Alternatively, you can use or arrow keys on your keyboard to move forward or backward through the presentation. You can also hover your mouse over the bottom-left and click the arrows to move forward or backward. To stop a slide show:You can exit presentation mode by pressing the Esc key on your keyboard. Alternatively, you can click the Slide Show Options button in the bottom-left and select End Show. The presentation will also end after the last slide. You can click the mouse or press the spacebar to return to Normal view. Presentation tools and featuresPowerPoint provides convenient tools you can use while presenting your slide show. For example, you can change your mouse pointer to a pen or highlighter to draw attention to items in your slides. In addition, you can jump around to slides in your presentation or access other programs from your taskbar if needed. To show the taskbar:Sometimes you may need to access the Internet or other files and programs on your computer during your presentation. PowerPoint allows you to access your taskbar without ending the presentation.
Slide optionsYou can also access any of the menu items above by right-clicking anywhere on the screen during your slide show. To skip to a nonadjacent slide:You can jump to slides out of order if needed.
To access drawing tools:Your mouse pointer can act as pen or highlighter to draw attention to items in your slides.
You can also use the laser pointer feature to draw attention to certain parts of your slide. Unlike the pen and highlighter, the laser pointer will not leave markings on your slides. To use the laser pointer, select it from Pen Tools, or press and hold the Ctrl key and the left mouse button. To erase ink markings:
When you end a slide show, you'll also have the option to Keep or Discard any ink annotations made during your presentation. If you keep ink markings, they'll appear as objects on your slides in Normal view. Presenter viewIf you're presenting your slide show with a second display—like a projector—you can use Presenter view. Presenter view gives you access to a special set of controls on your screen that the audience won't see, allowing you to easily reference slide notes,
preview the upcoming slide, and much more. To access Presenter view:Start your slide show as you normally would, then click the Slide Options button and select Presenter View. Alternatively, you can press Alt+F5 on your keyboard to start the slide show in Presenter view. Click the buttons in the interactive below to learn more about using Presenter view.
