Review
Most classroom PowerPoints are about as much fun as a career ed filmstrip. Luckily, PowerPak for PowerPoint has more than 20 engaging PowerPoint templates you can easily fit into your teaching process. They include interactive courses, games, and home assignments themed after such popular TV shows as
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
,
Family Feud
, and
Hollywood Squares
. The graphics and sound aren't spectacular, but they're a step up from the usual headlines and bullets. The trial download comes with two sample presentations and an exhaustive manual, so even novices can start customizing. We'd have liked to see a step-by-step wizard, but that's a small quibble. If you want to spice up your lessons, give PowerPak for PowerPoint a try. You have nothing to lose but your dull reputation.
