Then at the top, you can see where we can see whether or not we select source formatting. Click on the project you want to copy, and to choose content, it's going to show you the slides in that content. It's going to give you a pop up on the right, and it's going to show you the locations where you have the most recent PowerPoint objects. So if you're going to reuse slides, on the home ribbon, you have a button that says Reuse slides. Here is another thing you can do if you want to copy slides from one presentation to another. PowerPoint gave us a little pop up saying you can reuse slides. So for this background we have the blue for Teachers, or changing to Gray because it's matching that lightbulb toolkit. The last thing we're going to do is use the destination theme and see how the colors change a little bit here. It's going to put the slide in place, but it's going to keep all the colors and background as the original presentation. The second option, like I said, is Keep source formatting. Keep source formatting, which is what we usually do, so that's if you want to keep the same formatting options from the Teaching Template, or just paste it as a picture.įirst, we'll show pasting as a picture what it does is it just dumps it into the most current slide, and this is literally just an image so you can re-size it, anything along those lines to have it within this presentation. You can see we have the Use Destination theme, which means the Teaching toolkit will use all of the same color patterns as what is assigned to this theme. Well if we want to insert a slide from another presentation, all we have to do is click between two slides, you see we get this little red line set up here. So you can see how we have this great template all put together. This one is about a month old, and Judd put this one together, I believe. So we're going to go to our desktop and grab our lightbulb toolkit. Next, we're going to open the presentation that we want to put this in. So we're talking three different ways to copy, nice and straight forward. You can also use the copy option up at the top of the ribbon. Now just like anything else in Microsoft Office, you can use control C if you're that type of person who likes to get that stuff copied. So we're going to right-click on that slide and go up to copy. And what we're going to do is we're going to say that we love this slide with the laptop on it.

In the background you can see we have the Teaching Waves template pulled up it's one of the PowerPoint templates Josh got done creating last week actually. So this is pretty straightforward work, but it's one of the things that it's easy to take for granted.
