1. Create a Voicethread account. I think they only charge a few dollars to enroll and then never charge you again.
2. Save your powerpoint in a new way. Normally you would just save your Powerpoint as a presentation. Not for this. When you click "Save As" and the box to save comes up, click the arrow to the right of "Save as Type". Scroll through the choices until you get to JPEG File Interchange Format. Select this.
3. Your computer will ask your permission to save a picture of each page in a new folder. Agree to this.
4. Now, your powerpoint slides have been saved as images and you can upload them to Voicethread.
5. Go to Voicethread, sign in and select "Create". You can upload your images and you should be all set.
Benefits:Pretty easy once you get the hang of it.You can add your recorded voice, songs, sounds and videos.A nice presentation screen.
Downsides:There is a small one time fee.You can't edit your slides in the same way as PowerPoint. It's possible but I tend to use this feature when I know it's all complete. I also keep a back-up version of my presentation in ppt format on my hard drive in case I want to change it and re-upload the pictures of the slides.
