Alaska presentation

When we got back to the park this season and we told people about our Alaska trip, some friends in the Ham radio group asked if we could do a presentation on it. So, I put a presentation together (I learned a LOT of new things to do in Powerpoint!). A week ago Saturday I was scheduled to do the presentation for the group in Venture Out.

"Alaska Journey"

Presenting

Does the audience look like they are rapt?!?!?!?

I had a lot more content than I could present in the time allotted, so I had decided to start the presentation and just stop when it was time for the meeting to come to an end. That got us as far as the Alaska border (caravan start, Calgary, Banff, Alaska Highway, Signpost forest in Watson Lake, Whitehorse, Dawson City). The other Ham radio group that Carl belongs to has me scheduled to present for one of their meetings in February, so I'll do the initial slides, and then continue the presentation from the Alaska border.

I had used Powerpoint to create the course materials that I did in my teaching with IBM. In my learning about additional features of Powerpoint, I added a lot of animation and included lots of pictures and videos. Several folks came up afterwards and asked how I had put the presentation together so I think they found the presentation to be interesting.
