Microsoft PowerPoint is a powerful multimedia tool that is generally available on both PC and Mac.

PowerPoint is a tool that can be used to create adapted books and personalized switch based programs.

This Tutorial will take you through creating a clickable book using PowerPoint. You will have a title page and multiple book pages. On each page you will be adding text, narration, sound, pictures and animation. It is very important to save each time you add something new.

The Tutorial may be used on the computer as a PowerPoint slide show or printed as a handout.

A basic knowledge of PowerPoint and editing skills and working between two programs is a prerequisite.
