In this
tutorial
you will:
Launch TurningPoint
Check out the
TurningPoint (TP) toolbar
Use Insert Slide on the TP toolbar to open a
simple interactive (TP) slide
Create and customize your first TP slide
Run a presentation of your first TP slide
Find & Click the TurningPoint icon on your desktop to launch
PowerPoint with TurningPoint (TP) embedded, and see…
Let’s get rid of the slide
outline and slide layout
windows – click on the X
of each..
Note: Open pre-existing TP files from
within TP – double-clicking on a file
icon only opens PowerPoint.
This is the TP toolbar
The slide looks like (and is) a PowerPoint default slide.
Use it to create a title slide for your presentation.
Use Insert on the PowerPoint (uppermost) toolbar to
create additional standard PowerPoint presentation slides.
To create an interactive TurningPoint (S&R)
slide, click on Insert Slide on the TP toolbar;
then select Vertical Slide and see…
…this:
The default bar graph tells you
that this is a TP slide. Click on
Enter question or Enter answer;
they are separate text boxes.
Note: TP provides S&R templates, but any slide type is possible with this generic format.
If you want to change a question from M/C to T/F, don’t discard your question & select
another template; just modify it!
Now click in the Enter
question text box,
highlight the text.
And replace the default text
with your stem (question).
Next click in the Enter
answer text box, highlight
the text.
Type 1st answer option, hit return, type 2nd answer option;
Repeat for all options. Click outside text box; the default bar
graph now shows all options.
The graph will
change in
show mode to
reveal student
responses.
You have created your first ready-to-use slide.
Here are a few ways to customize it.
Let’s add a countdown
timer: Click Insert
object, then Countdown
timer, then your choice
of timer image:
You’ll see the window below:
To change the time
allowed to answer a
question, click on the 10
Change the time (in seconds)
in the pop-up window
The new time
limit appears.
Let’s prompt students to respond. Click Insert Object
once more, then Answer now; select an image.
This is what you’ll see:
NOTE: The images added to this slide
overlap here, In presentation mode they
appear and disappear separately in
sequence as you click through the slide.
To see what happens when you run your
TP presentation, enter the show mode…
The expanded showbar in this slide should be
the default on most podium computers. If not,
click on i to show the polling information.
In simulated polling mode, you will see this
just before polling begins.
The next click starts the
countdown timer & removes
the Answer now prompt.
Note on the countdown timer: Answers will be collected from
the moment the slide appears until the countdown timer
expires. The timer controls when polling stops, not when it
starts!.

The red box at the far right of
the showbar will turn red at the
expiration of a countdown
timer (or the next click).
