You work as an Office Assistant for Company Inc. You are preparing a presentation through
PowerPoint 2010. You want the presentation to run as a self-running presentation, so that you can
control whether a mouse click anywhere on the screen advances a slide. Which of the following
actions will you take to accomplish the task?
A.
Use the rehearse timings feature and browse the presentation at an individual window.
B.
Use the rehearse timings feature and browse the presentation using the Presenter view.
C.
Use the rehearse timings feature and browse the presentation at a kiosk.
D.
Use the rehearse timings feature and browse the presentation by a speaker.
Explanation:
Using the rehearse timing feature and setting a presentation to run at a kiosk will allow you to
control whether a mouse click anywhere on the screen advances a slide. A kiosk is used to give users
additional control by adding navigation, hyperlinks, or action buttons to the presentation slides.
By using the rehearse timing feature, a user can record the time to present each slide, and then use
the recorded times to advance the slides automatically while giving the presentation to the actual
audience. It launches a full screen slide show for rehearsing presentations and is the quickest way to
set the slide show timings. It is used to create self-running presentations.
Note: If you are going to run a presentation at a kiosk, it is necessary to use rehearse timings,
navigation hyperlinks, or action buttons. Otherwise, the presentation will not advance beyond the
first slide. Take the following steps to set a presentation at a kiosk after setting the rehearse timing
of the slides:
1. On the Slide Show tab, in the Set Up group, click Set Up Slide Show.
2. Under Show type, click Browsed at a kiosk (full screen). Click the OK button.
Answer option D is incorrect. If you want to deliver a presentation before a live audience, then the
Presented by a speaker (full screen) option will be used.
Answer option A is incorrect. If you want to enable your viewer to show your presentation from a
hard drive or CD on a computer, or on the Internet, then the Browsed by an individual (window)
option will be used. By selecting the Show scrollbar check box, you can also allow your audience to
scroll through your self-running presentation from an unattended computer.
Answer option B is incorrect. The Presenter view is used to project the slide show to one monitor
while using a special speaker view on another monitor that includes timings and speaker notes.
