Do Re Mi in PowerPoint

I heard a story of a radio and Television. In the beginning era of modernity, a radio in a house, which was the sole resource of entertainment, was deserted when a more sophisticated TV entered the house. The story was about a personified radio’s sorrow over the cruel neglectfulness by the family members. 

Why now a story like this? Because, Artculate Storyline is the in thing currently, and no one actually remembers that they had depended much on Articulate Presenter formerly. However, I don’t want to be like the unkind people of that family. Here, I have created something in PowerPoint to show my attachment to it.

Though the title suggests something I did in PowerPoint, I have achieved this effect with the help of Articulate Presenter. I know this will be an easy task in Storyline with the help of triggers. But, I wanted just to make sure that with a little effort, presenter also could do something close to Storyline. What I tried was to create the Fundamental Musical Notes (Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti) in PowerPoint. You may download the zip from the below link, and try to learn how to play a simple piano online.

Introduction to Elearning

Did you ever wonder about the difficulties of effectively instructing the tech illiterates on certain how-to-do’s? Even in the case of filling some online forms also, you might have come across people with trouble in grasping the ‘seemingly sophisticated’ procedures and steps. Then what about senior persons who are trying to learn a new thing, say a language? A teacher or a professor has certain limitations in this aspect. Despite of class room teaching, we need some advanced tools to plant ideas into the minds of the aforementioned group of learners. An approach that incorporates technology and creativity equally can do wonders in this new-generation method of learning. This new method of learning may generally be called elearning. Coming to the terminology, you might have noticed the spelling of the name given to this new learning system. Well, 'elearning' is a neologism, which is nowadays being commonly used by the techies around the globe. The word is derived from ‘electro...

Remove Image Backgrounds Using Paint in PowerPoint – An Outdated Update

The traditional methods of removing backgrounds of images in PowerPoint 2007 version have become obsolete now with the advent of the innovative background removal tool in the 2010 version. But since what the proverb reminds us is being late is better than being never’, I decided to post a small tip, using which we can make the background removal in 2007 version a little bit finer with the application of MS Paint. We know two methods of background removing in PowerPoint 2007. In the first method , we draw an outline of the main object in our image using freeform shape and fill the shape using the picture or texture fill option. In the second method , we draw outlines of the background areas of the image using free form tool, give same colour to all shapes, and after making the entire group into a PNG image remove the background portions using set transparaent colour option. But while using this second method, many of you might have found the light outline of the shapes as a disturbnace...

Conclude Your E-Learning Modules with a Shrinking Cinematic Effect

Hey! And I am back, and this time with a simple PowerPoint effect created based on the basic animations. I think this effect can be used as an alternative method to end your e-learning tutorials with a cinematic effect while scrolling up the credit lines. The below screenr will show you the Shrinking Cinematic Effect and the steps which I used to create the effect. If you find my awkward pronunciation difficult to follow, scroll down this page further, and you will see the steps in written format with additional images.  In these following steps, I am showing you a different example. If it was Pierce Brosnan who appeared in my Screenr video, now it is the turn of Tom and Jerry. Step 1: You have the image of Tom & Jerry placed in a PowerPoint slide covering entirely the slide area. In this example, I have changed the slide background colour into black. Step 2: Copy the image, place it exactly on top of the first imag...
