Seven students in CDIT's Intermediate Computer and Internet Class (CIC) for adults delivered PowerPoint presentations Monday night. The students have met for two and a half hours on Monday evenings for twelve weeks, learning the Microsoft Office applications Excel, Word, Publisher, and Powerpoint. The presentation was designed to be a culminating final project incorporating all the skills they had learned.
Student picked the topics of their presentations, and they varied greatly. Some students used the opportunity to promote their business, others to pitch their business proposals, complete with SWOT analyses. Some used the presentation to share about their interests and hobbies, for instance the pets of the White House over history or Pennsylvania deer hunting.
Students utilized animations, music clips, and exciting fonts to create engaging presentations. To meet the requirements of incorporating Excel and Publisher material, they imported charts, graphs, and shapes to augment their text slides. The instructor of the class, Kwaku Boateng, remarked that the presentations were inspiring and informational. He predicted that student Belinda Patrick's presentation on her music business would propel her to fame. Even if that comes true, Patrick says "I'll never forget these computer classes."
The students will graduate on Tuesday, August 19 along with over twenty other students completing the Intro and Beginner CIC classes. To learn more about the free classes, call 267-777-5860 or email di@pec-cares.org.
