Do NOT use a PowerPoint presentation or template that you find on the web. This is an exercise in the process of building your own PowerPoint presentation slide by slide. I realize you can find some very “fancy” PowerPoints online – but I’d rather see that you made it yourself – even if it doesn’t have lots of bells and whistles! Remember that if you can find something online – your instructor can find it too!
Do NOT use a health or PE topic unless you are working toward a single subject 7-12 PE or Health credential student and you are planning to pass the CSETs in health or PE.
Please do NOT “double-dip” and use a PowerPoint you have created or are creating for another class. Using work you’ve submitted in another class violates the Brandman academic integrity policy listed in the catalog: “Students may not submit work done in one course to satisfy the requirements of another course, unless both instructors agree beforehand to accept such work.” Do not submit a health, PE, inclusion, or any other PowerPoint from other classes.
