- Voice-over PowerPoints
-
You may be asked to do a voice-over PowerPoint presentation. This is one way your instructor can assess content as well as presentation skills.
Here are some written instructions on how to do this in Office 365 PowerPoint
If your instructor requires you to upload your video to YouTube and provide him/her a link, be sure that you have saved this voice-over in one of the accepted formats instead of .ppt (which YouTube will not accept). If you forget and save the presentation as a .ppt it can be converted; however, this is time consuming.
The format types supported on YouTube are:
• .MOV
• .MPEG4
• MP4
• .AVI
• .WMV
• .MPEGPS
• .FLV
• 3GPP
• WebMPresentaciones de PowerPoint con voz en off
Es posible que se le pida que haga una presentación de PowerPoint con voz en off. Esta es una forma en que su instructor puede evaluar el contenido y las habilidades de presentación. Aquí encontrará instrucciones escritas sobre cómo hacerlo en PowerPoint de Office 365: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/record-a-slide-show-with-narration-and-slide-timings-0b9502c6-5f6c-40ae-b1e7-e47d8741161c
Si su instructor le pide que suba su video a YouTube y le proporcione un enlace, asegúrese de guardar la voz en off en uno de los formatos aceptados en lugar de .ppt (que YouTube no acepta). Si olvida guardar la presentación como .ppt, se puede convertir; sin embargo, este proceso lleva mucho tiempo.
Los formatos compatibles con YouTube son:
• .MOV
• .MPEG4
• MP4
• .AVI
• .WMV
• .MPEGPS
• .FLV
• 3GPP
• WebM
