POWERPOINT IN THE CLASSROOM


I downloaded the Multi-Q file, but none of the links on the game board slide (Slide 13) seem to work properly. What happened?

Sometimes, using a different version of PowerPoint seems to "undo" all of the links from the game board slide. Clicking ANY question from the game board slide will always take you to the same question. This is frustrating, but fixable... Just follow the steps outlined below. Most of your work will be done on Slide 13, which is the game board itself.

  • Highlight the point amount in any table cell on the game board
    (Example: Topic 3 for 50 points)


  • Click SLIDE SHOW on the menu bar at the top of your screen

  • Click ACTION SETTINGS

  • The ACTION SETTINGS dialog box appears

  • Check the existing "Hyperlink" setting. If the point amount is not linked to the correct slide, click the down arrow on to the right and click "Slide..."

  • The "Hyperlink to Slide" dialog box appears.

  • Select the correct slide (For this example: 3:50), and click OK

  • You are now back at the "ACTION SETTINGS" dialog box. Click OK again.

That should do it. You'll have to check & change each game board link individually. It's a pain to have to reset all of the links, but it goes pretty quickly once you get started.
