skip the installation of the PowerPoint Viewer.
To install Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer:
1. Start Windows.
2. Choose File | Run from the Program Manager.
3. Place the PowerPoint Viewer disk (not the presentation data disk)
in the appropriate disk drive.
4. Type A:VSETUP (or B:VSETUP if you're using drive B)
and choose OK. The PowerPoint Viewer Setup dialog box
appears.
5. If you want to change the directory in which the Viewer
will be installed, type the directory's name in the
Install To box. Choose OK.
The presentation graphics files are self-extracting, compressed
files (PKZIP). You can install the presentation graphics files
by using Windows File Manager.
To install the presentation files using File Manager:
1. Insert a SFMUME presentation graphics disk in your
A drive.
2. Change to the A drive to see the files on the disk.
3. Double click on the compressed file (*.EXE) to extract
the PowerPoint file from the compressed file. You will
be prompted for the drive and directory where you want
the file to be installed.
4. The PowerPoint file (*.PPT) is now available for use.
3. Running a Slide Show in Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer
---------------
1. Start Windows.
2. Double-click the PowerPoint Viewer icon in the Program
Manager. The PowerPoint Viewer dialog box appears.
3. In the directory box, select the directory where the
presentation graphics files are stored.
4. Select the presentation graphic file (e.g., CHAP01.PPT) you
want to show, and then choose Show. The Viewer opens, and
the slide show begins.
5. To advance slides during the slide show, press the Space Bar
or click the left mouse button. To reverse direction to go
back one slide, press the Backspace key or click the right
mouse button.
4. Running a Slide Show in Microsoft PowerPoint 4.0
---------------
1. Start Windows.
2. Double-click the PowerPoint icon in the Program
Manager. PowerPoint loads.
3. From the File menu, choose Open.
The Open dialog box appears.
4. In the directory box, select the directory where the

5. Select the presentation graphics file (e.g., CHAP01.PPT)
you want to show, and then choose OK.
The file opens in PowerPoint.
6. From the View menu, choose Slide Show.
The Slide Show dialog appears.
7. Under Slides, choose which slides you want to present.
Choose All unless you didn't finish a lecture.
8. Choose Show. The presentation begins.
9. To advance slides during the slide show, press the Space Bar
or click the left mouse button. To reverse direction to go
back one slide, press the Backspace key or click the right
mouse button.
5. Printing Slides, Outlines, Speaker's Notes, Handouts
(PowerPoint 4.0 or higher ONLY)
---------------
1. Double-click the PowerPoint icon in the Program Manager
to start PowerPoint.
2. From the File menu in PowerPoint, choose Print.
The Print dialog box appears.
3. Select what you want to print. Although there are many
choices, select one of the following:
a. Slides (Without Builds) - prints one slide per page on
paper or overhead transparencies.
b. Notes Pages - prints your speaker's notes pages. The
pages will print one miniature slide per page with a
large lined space. You can add hand-written notes
to use while giving your lecture.
c. Handouts (3 slides per page) - prints three slides per
page.
d. Outline View - prints your outline according to how
your outline appears on-screen in Outline View.
4. Choose the following additional options:
a. Print Hidden Slides (if active) - do NOT select this
option. Many hidden slides are "build" slides.
b. Black & White - best printing of slides, lecture
notes, outlines, and handouts in black and white.
6. Helpful Hints
---------------
1. There are 1,400 total slides in the lecture presentation.
In the Student Lecture Notes, available from Prentice-Hall,
there are about 820. Printing transparencies or handouts
is not feasible with this many slides. Have the students
buy the Student Lecture Notes if you want students to have
handouts. Also, the Notes have been optimized to obtain
the best print quality.
2. If you decide to add slides or create your own
presentation, similar to this one, plan on spending
about 30 minutes per slide.
3. You will need about 20-30 slides for a typical 80-minute
lecture if you go at a moderate pace. Your actual time
will depend upon many factors: number of in-class
exercises ('Thinking Challenges'), amount of time you
give students to solve the exercises, your lecture speed,
the number of student questions, topic difficulty etc.
4. The number of slides per chapter in the Student Lecture
Notes are:
Chap. 1 (46) Chap. 6 (50) Chap. 11 (108)
Chap. 2 (61) Chap. 7 (67) Chap. 12 (65)
Chap. 3 (43) Chap. 8 (74) Chap. 13 (64)
Chap. 4 (79) Chap. 9 (45)
Chap. 5 (65) Chap. 10 (50)
5. Several in-class exercises require data to be collected
or tables to be filled in. You can write on the screen
in PowerPoint but this is very difficult to do unless
you're just drawing lines. Therefore, have a black-
board, overhead projector, or flip-chart available at
the front of the class.
6. The 'Thinking Challenges' are in-class exercises. For
pedagogical reasons they occur about ever 20 minutes.
At the bottom of the slide is a set of arrows labeled
Alone-Group-Class. This is a reminder to try this
approach: Give the students several minutes to work ALONE
on the problem. Then students will work in GROUPS on
the problem for several minutes. For simple problems
form groups of two. One student will explain to the
other student how the solution was obtained. The other
will just listen, ask questions or provide hints. You
want to avoid, 'I got 12. What did you get?' '12 also.'
For more complex problems involving open-ended or
opinion questions, have students form groups of 3-4.
After several minutes of group work, discuss the problem
as a CLASS. Try the approach; it works well.
7. When giving your lecture, you may want to skip a topic.
Press the [ESC] key to stop the presentation.
Go into slide sorter (the button with 4 boxes in the
bottom left of the screen), and scroll to the slide you
want to go to. Click on the slide you want. Then click
on the screen show button (also bottom left of screen)
to begin. Another option is to delete the slides you
don't want. However, if you're using the Student
Lecture Notes, the page count will be incorrect and
students may get confused as to where you are.
Thank you for adopting Statistics for Managers Using
Microsoft Excel 1/e by Levine, Berenson and Stephan.
