In today's assignment I learned how to edit a presentation. It was real easy to go through the presentation and delete and add information. One thing that I learned about PowerPoint is that it performs find and replace commands just like in Microsoft Word.

In our first PowerPoint assignment I mostly learned how to navigate through slides. I learned the various ways to go to the previous and next slides and also the different ways to view your presentations in PowerPoint. One thing that I did not know about this Microsoft program is that it provides you with an presentation outline and I learned the correct terms for certain viewing options.
