Technology Powerpoint: Barack Obama or John McCain - Who Do You Know is the Better Choice?

Many students don't know anything about the candidates. So in this assignment in technology, students will find information and put it in a powerpoint presentation.

Students will need to go to atomic learning website (see notes)to learn how to use powerpoint. Students will have to create a 10 slide powerpoint about Barack Obama and John McCain. Each slide will have 3 facts of information on the candidates. 5 slides are on each candidate. Each slide needs to have some animation on it.
On atomiclearning students using a a desktop must listen microsoft powerpoint 2007 intro and if you are using a laptop you must listen to microsoft powerpoint 2003-intro. You must have headphones to listen to all of the tutorials. Remember, you need to listen to all the tutorials because I will be giving you a test on some specific things on the tutorial, like adding sound, animation, video and pictures.

You can use the following website to help you in your research.
