Making a PowerPoint

When we were asked to make a PowerPoint in our group, I thought how easy, I use PowerPoint almost everyday in my classroom. We used Google docs to upload our PowerPoint so that each member could work on their part. When doing this however I found that there are some limitations to the Google docs presentation software. The software only allows you to up load Microsoft PowerPoint slides that are saved in the 2003 version. This would not be an issue except it prevents some animations from being used. When I present in my classroom, I find that having animations is very eye catching for students and people in general. So with out the extras PowerPoint can become plain. So in the future I hope that google docs up dates their software so that animations can be used. Other then that one catch, having everyone work on the presentation in that one spot was very time efficient and helpful.
