Powerpoint slides


Note the following:

  • I have included all the slides, so that you can track through the lecture as delivered, but you may want to copy, paste and print out only a selection for your notes.
  • When printing out, make sure to print in "pure black and white", which should be an option given to you when you print from PowerPoint. This means that the black background is read as white, and the graphs, text etc. will be printed in black. This will save on laser printer toner.
  • You also have the option of printing out 1, 3 or 6 slides per page, the last of which is the best option if you want the full collection.
  • It may be advisable to save copies of these files onto floppies, as some of them are quite large, and will gradually take up a large part of your limited disk quota on the campus PC network.
