The Story Behind the ‘Seven Wonders of the Modern World’ PowerPoint Presentation

A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present
‘Seven Wonders of the World.’  The following received the most votes:

  1. Egypt’s Great Pyramids
  2. Taj Mahal
  3. Grand Canyon
  4. Panama Canal
  5. Empire State Building
  6. St. Peter’s Basilica
  7. China’s Great Wall

After the Voting
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student had not finished
her paper yet.  So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her
list. The girl replied, ‘Yes, a little. I couldn’t quite make up my mind because
there were so many.’

The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook
as simple and ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wondrous.

A gentle reminder : That the most precious things in life cannot be built by
hand or bought by man.

How to Create an Inspirational PowerPoint PresentationHow to Create a PowerPoint Presentation

Making presentations in PowerPoint is satisfying, moreover, it’s easy to get
started.
The PowerPoint program is intuitive to learn and easy to create your own PPT
slides and build them into a slide show.  If you have
Microsoft Office you may find that you already have PowerPoint along with Word
and Excel.

One way to begin is simply to open any example presentation.  Just
download one of our free PPT files and open it with PowerPoint.  As you examine the slides, so it will become obvious how
to add pictures and titles, if you do get stuck, ask the wonderful built-in ‘Help’.  To
make an inspirational slide show requires these skills;

  • Imagination – Think of a motivating idea, then build a themed slide set
  • Artistic – An eye for a good picture
  • Wordsmith – Choose a catchy title for each slide
  • PowerPoint mechanics – Actually, this is the easiest skill of them all, the
    program is so intuitive.
  • Latest techique – Use Skydrive.  Import to your public folder,
    embed in your web page.

Good luck with creating your inspirational PowerPoint Presentation
