Introductionma61d2d63e016b24e_1528450127855_0Introduction

The teacher begins the lesson with a short discussion about the role of animationanimationanimation in presentations.

The students formulate conclusions.

Animation is an excellent way to emphasize an element of a presentation and to control the flow of information. Well chosen and prepared animations will increase the attention paid by the audience to highlighted components of a slide show.

Procedurema61d2d63e016b24e_1528446435040_0Procedure

In PowerPoint presentations, you can animate texts, images, shapes, tables, SmartArt graphics and other objects. AnimationanimationAnimation gives them visual effects including: entrances, exits, change in sizechange in sizechange in size or colour, change of transparencytransparencytransparency and movement.

In order to add an animation to an object, follow these steps:

- select an object,
- choose an animation effect,
- set the properties of the effect.

There are four types of animationanimationanimation effects.

[Interactive graphics]

Most of the effects require to set additional effect parameters. For example for the Fly In effect you can set the direction from which an object will appear.

[Illustration 1]

The gallery of the animation effects on the Animations tab shows only the most popular effects. In order to apply more, click Add Animation, then scroll down and click More entrance effects, More emphasis effects, More exit effects or More motion paths.ma61d2d63e016b24e_1527752256679_0The gallery of the animation effects on the Animations tab shows only the most popular effects.

Task 1

Open the programme for creating animations. Add the text and graphical elements to the slides. Try various animationanimationanimation effects. Check the result of the animation of a table and a SmartArt graphic.

[Illustration 2]

Setting the start time of an animation effect:
On the Animations tab, under Timing, you can choose one of the three options:
- On Click,
- With Previous (animation),
- After Previous (animation).

Setting the speed of an animation effect:
In order to change the speed of your animationanimationanimation effect, on the Animations tab, under Timing, in the Duration box, modify the number of seconds that you want the effect to run. If you want to delay the start time of the animation or pause in between animation effects on the slide, you can set a delay on one or more effects.

Task 2

Create a multimedia presentation entitled „Ocean currents”. Find the information and graphics you need on the Internet. Use animation to present the movement of the ocean currents.

In order to ensure that animations are run during a slide show, on the Slide Show tab, select Set Up Slide Show and make sure that the Show without animation check box is not selected. If it is selected, then the animations will be run during the preview of the slide show, but not during the presentation. Some entrance and exit effects (e.g. Flip, Drop and Whip) and some emphasis effects (e.g. Brush Color and Wave) work only with text.ma61d2d63e016b24e_1527752263647_0In order to ensure that animations are run during a slide show, on the Slide Show tab, select Set Up Slide Show and make sure that the Show without animation check box is not selected.
