In this
tutorial
you will:
Use TurningPoint slide templates
to create different kinds of slides
Analogy
True/False
Likert,
with different
# of
responses
Generic
mulitple
choice
Find & Click the TurningPoint icon on your
desktop to launch TurningPoint (TP).
To create interactive TurningPoint
(S&R) slides, click on Insert Slide
on the TP toolbar. The templates
appear in the dropdown window.
Highlight Likert Slides and
then, 5 scale.
A standard 5 option Likert
question appears, with
the appropriate default
bar graph..
Now click in the What is
your opinion? box,
highlight the text and…
…type in your own
stem/question.
This template appears if you
select the True/False option
from the Insert Slide
dropdown window.
This template appears if you
select Yes/No/Abstain from the
Insert Slide dropdown window.
This one appears if you select
Generic and then 4 answer from
the Insert Slide dropdown window.
Generic slides are the basis for
multiple choice questions.
…and this one, if you select
Ice Breaker Slides and then
Analogies from the Insert Slide
dropdown window. Check out
other templates on your own!
In each of these slides, replace
default text with your own.
Each slide can be customized
(see Create and customize a TP
slide tutorial)
Just a reminder: Template slides save time.
If you decide to change from a T/F to a
four-option multiple choice question, just
edit the slide you began.
You do not need to dump the T/F slide and
start a new (Generic, 4 answer) one!
As always, to see what happens when you run
your TP presentation, select Simulated Data in
the box next to the lightning bolt and then
enter the show mode…
