Linking PowerPoints
You may choose to place links in your PowerPoints for your convenience in
presentations. Additionally, it allows you to:
 jump from one presentation to another
 jump to a file
 open a website
 show a video
 start a program
without having to open and close files from your computer. Additionally, it is an
excellent way to set up a self guided tour for students or on a website.
Linking PowerPoints
 Open PowerPoint and design the first slide with the titles of the PowerPoints you
would like to link together.
