Save your presentations as PowerPoint shows

Previously I mentioned how you can develop PowerPoint presentations as guided individual learning activities by placing your presentation into Kiosk mode. There is one flaw here in that students can escape the presentation and scroll through the slides (and even mess around with them).
One way to avoid this is to save your presentation as a PowerPoint Show rather than as a presentation. You do this simply by changing the .ppt notation when you save the presentation to a .pps ending. By doing this the presentation will open directly into show mode and students cannot escape to look at the individual slides.
Naturally it is important to save your presentation as a normal .ppt master file first. This then means that it is possibly to make tests, quizzes and study modules that the students can work through in a pre-designated order.
