MFT: Students aren't usually too excited at the thought of doing tests and quizzes. But you seem to have inspired some kind of enthusiasm in your classroom. How is this possible? Tess: I've managed to do it with PowerPoint - by creating multiple-choice quiz questions that basically work with any topic. MFT: How do you do it? Tess: I write a test that contains four answer choices for each question. Then I place four action buttons next to each answer choice - with one right answer, of course, and three wrong ones. If students choose the wrong answer, they are sent to a "try again" page that directs them back to the question. If they choose the right answer, they advance to the next question. MFT: That sounds like it would be a fun quiz to do - but it also sounds like a lot of hard work for you. Tess: It is hard work - and it's definitely not something you can do overnight. But everyone knows hard-workers are drawn to the teaching profession. Another thing - while you can't use it to track the student's final score on the test, the student still benefits from working to find the right answer. MFT: Do you think it's really worth it for you to put in so much effort? Tess: Oh definitely! If you choose the right topics, you can use the same quiz stations year after year. You can also trade your quizzes with teachers in other classes. MFT: That does sound worthwhile. Thanks for sharing this info today. Read the interview above and choose the best summary below:

Packing your presentation You can easily pack your presentation on a disk using PowerPoint's Save as CD feature. The feature packs your presentation, as well as software necessary to run the program. You then copy the presentation to the computer you will be using to run your presentation. If the destination computer doesn't have PowerPoint 2007, it will be able to display your presentation. The destination computer must be running Windows 2000 or later. If the computer has an earlier version of Windows, then you first need to save a copy of your presentation in the PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation format. Click on the Microsoft Office button, select the arrow in the Save As option and then pick PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation to make a copy of your PowerPoint 2007 Presentation compatible with earlier Windows system software. Summarize the passage above.
