assessment tools that are student driven? Along
with all of the features of linear presentations,
non-linear presentations are interactive and
they can be pretty cool! The presentation will

presentations and show you how to make
them. To start, make sure you are in slide

these files need to go into the same folder as
your PowerPoint presentation. This folder
