A slideshow presentation file allows us to write, style, edit, and animate presentations for online tutorials, speeches with audience participation, and interactive animations.

The diagram below outlines some of the most common options regardless of the brand. This diagram is from Google Slides but Microsoft PowerPoint, and Apple Keynote also provide the same tools.

4.1 Design presentation theme layouts.

In this lesson, you'll design a cover and text slide styled to reflect OSU's marketing style. The cover slide theme layout will include the OSU's color scheme, font, and logo. The text slide theme layout will accommodate longer paragraphs (like a book), rather than bulleted phrases (like lecture notes).

4.1.1 Launch a presentation application.

Start with a blank file (rather than a template):

• Microsoft PowerPoint:
  1. Click the Blank Presentation icon.
  2. Change the title to How Data Collection Works.
  3. Update the dimensions of the slideshow from the File > Page Setup screen (or the Design tab's Customize Slide Size menu). Choose On-screen Show (16:9) and revise the dimensions to 10in wide and 5.63in high.
     
  4. Choose to Scale or Ensure Fit the contents of the master slide.
  5. Ctrls save the file with this filename: How Data Collection Works.pptx and move it to your CS 101 folder.

• File > Download as PDF. Save the file to your CS 101 folder on the hard drive or Google Drive.

4.5.3 Publish/share the file.

In order for others to see your presentation without having to download, ask for permission, or look at your editing file, share it publically, or publish it to the web. The goal is to provide a live link that starts the presentation in presentation mode without any hassles. Share/publish the file using the correct cloud drive:

• 1. Save > Save as PPSX or Show... file.
  2. Login to your OSU OneDrive account from the browser.
  3. Drag the file from your hard drive to the OSU OneDrive file list in the browser to transfer it there.
  4. Beside the file name in the list, click the Share icon:

  View and play the URL to ensure all pages are provided and the video plays.

4.5.4 Extra Credit: export or capture as a video.

Some audiences prefer to view a presentation file as a video with voice-over and imagery. Learn how to provide that option:

• Microsoft PowerPoint
  Versions for Mac and Windows offer different options.
  1. From the Slide Show tab, click on the Record Slide Show button to record narration of each slide.
     
  2. Once the narration is complete, then File > Export as > Mp4.
     
  3. Older versions of PowerPoint may hide the narration features in the File > Export > Create Video area.
  Reduce the quality to lower the file size, since you'll host it on your OneDrive rather than YouTube.
  And, choose the Record Timings and Narrations feature. Start Recording your narration of the content of the slides.
  When all slides have been narrated, the recording will stop.
  Click the Video Create button to save the file to your hard drive.
  4. Use the YouTube (set to "Unlisted") or cloud drive Sharing feature (set so anyone at OSU can view) to capture the sharing URL.
  5. Copy the Sharing URL from your OneDrive to the Canvas Assignment Commenting box.
• Google Slides does not offer save as video or the ability to add audio to the file (without third-party add-ons, which OSU doesn't allow).
  
  However, you can use screencasting capabilities on your computer to record your reading of the text to create a video presentation.
  1. If you use a Mac computer, screencast using QuickTime (found in the Applications folder).
     
  2. For Windows, you can use one of these options:
     Screencastify
     . If prompted to purchase, go to the Pricing page to choose the $0 free option. When recording, only display the slides; no in-slide camera of yourself; it will overlap the text and distract from reading.
     
     Use the search bar to locate the Game bar (Win-G). Choose Game capturing. Learn more...
  3. Use the YouTube (set to "Unlisted") or cloud drive Sharing feature (set so anyone at OSU can view) to capture the sharing URL.
  4. Paste the Sharing URL into the Canvas Assignment Commenting box.

4.5.5 Extra Credit: Add an animated table of contents.

After posting your finished writing, reply to another student's thread with additional research.

4.9 Understand where fake news comes from.

1. Start by viewing How Fake News Works (captioned).
2. Then get caught up on how Macedonia was (and still is) profitting from the fake news industry:
   • Macedonian Builds Business on Reputation for Fake News. 2022.
   • Do these photos look real to you? Your answer could be cause for concern. And that’s terrifying. (2021)
   • Spot the Deep Fake (quiz).
3. In the first paragraph of your discussion notes, synthesize in the third-person style what you learned from the four sources. Hyperlink the titles of the articles you refer to. Add bold style to the key concepts.
4. For a more in-depth look at the history of this topic, read A Brief History of Fake News from CITS (2022).
5. You may also mention related details from this video, as long as you don't cover the same topic with the same details: The Horrifying Dangers of ChatGPT (2023)

4.10 Explore the Media Bias Chart.

The Interactive Media Bias Chart will help you differentiate factual news sources from opinion and sensational/fake sources.

1. Click the chart above to explore it thoroughly. Discover how to find quality sources of news and information for your upcoming projects (in this class and others).
   
   Sources at the top, in the middle, and marked in green are deemed 'reliable' due to their adherence to journalism ethics and factual reporting standards. Read more about the future of the Media Bias Chart and Vanessa Otero's research methods. View the chart in full-screen mode; it will be too small to view on the phone or tablets. To complete more than 5 searches, you may need to:
   • Empty the browser cache.
   • Use an Incognito/private window.
   • Use a different browser.
2. If you need help understanding the similarities and differences between 'left' and 'right' perspectives, review this infographic by David McCandless and Stepfanie Posevec: 2010 Left vs Right World (2010) Infographic. Or, get a more up-to-date data-driven perspective from Beyond Red vs. Blue: The Political Typology by Pew Research Center (2021).
3. In the second paragraph of your discussion notes, write in the first-person style about the following experiences using the Media Bias Chart. Hyperlink the title of the chart and/or its related articles. Add bold style to key concepts.
   • Do you typically read sources which are listed at the top center of the chart or from the edges and further down the chart?
   • What did you learn from looking at headlines and ads found at Associated Press and Reuters? Compare them to headlines and ads found on Fox News.
   • Check your social media feeds (or your favorite online news sources) to determine if you find less reputable sources listed there. Are they paid subscriptions, from sites and groups you've liked, or ads that look like news?

4.11 Set up a Newsfeed app.

Viewing news feeds can sway people's opinions of what is true or not true. To ensure you see high-quality news articles in your own feed (for research purposes), set up either of these News Feeds/Apps on your phone or computer:

• SmartNews
• Apple News
• Google News
• Public Broadcasting (PBS)
• Associated Press
• Wired Magazine
• FastCompany magazine

Add sections or tabs to the app for these topics:

• Local: for your community, nearest city, or state.
• World: to see how the rest of the world is doing.
• Technical: to see headlines related to the topics in this course.

News feeds shown below demonstrate how different the experiences are when searching for specific topics in a news feed:

In the third paragraph of your discussion notes:

1. Write in the third-person style about the content of a single Computer Science-related article you discovered using the new/updated newsfeed. Hyperlink the title of the article in a sentence in your paragraph. Add bold style to key concepts.
2. Also, analyze whether the headline attempted to grab your attention with facts or with sensational wording.
3. And, in the first-person style, discuss whether the information changed your thinking about the topic.
