Can anyone tell me if I can view speaker notes/notes pages while giving a powerpoint presentation without the "notes" showing up on the overhead?
Thanks for the help!
To show the audience one thing while you see another requires you to set it up to play on 2 monitors:
There are other methods if you have older versions - or if you have a dual graphics card . . .
Using Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 and Microsoft Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 (or later) or Microsoft Windows XP, you can run your presentation from one monitor and let the audience view it on another monitor. This allows you to keep other programs running that the audience won't see, plus you have access to presenter view, which offers a variety of tools for making it easier to present.
In presenter view, icons and buttons are large enough to navigate easily, even when you are using an unfamiliar keyboard or mouse. Presenter view features the following:
You can use the thumbnails to select slides out of sequence, creating a customized show for a given audience.
Preview text ("Up Next") shows you what your next click will add to the screen, whether it's a new slide or the next bullet item.
Speaker's notes are shown in large, clear type so that you can use them as a script for the presentation.
You can black out the screen during a presentation, and then resume the presentation where you left off.
