Which PowerPoint tab contains tools to add pictures and models to a slide?

Insert tab

100

How many dimensions does a 2D shape have? Name them.

Two dimensions — height and width.

100

Which tab would you use to add movement to an object on a slide?

Animations tab

100

What online storage name is commonly used to save PowerPoint files for group work with classmates?

OneDrive

What is a digital artifact? Give a short definition.

Digital artifact — a file or object created on a computer (e.g., picture, slide, video).

200

Give one example of a digital artifact you might insert into a presentation.

Example: digital picture (or video, drawing, 3D model)

200

Give one example of a 2D shape and one example of a 3D shape.

2D: circle; 3D: sphere.

200

What does a motion path do to an object on a slide?

Moves an object along a chosen route across the slide.

200

What feature prevents an object on a slide from being moved or changed by others?

Locking an object (or setting edit permissions)

200

In one short sentence, define the Morph transition.

Morph transition — makes objects appear to move or change smoothly between slides.

300

What is the main difference between a flat 2D image and a 3D model?

2D is flat (height and width); 3D has depth and appears solid.

300

In student-friendly terms, how does a 3D drawing show depth?

It uses shading, perspective, or extra faces so parts look closer or farther away, making it seem solid.

300

Name two visual effects that help make a flat shape look like it has depth.

3‑D Rotation and 3‑D Format (bevel, depth, shading).

300

Give one advantage of classmates working on the same file and one safety tip to follow when sharing files.

Advantage: real-time collaboration and version history. Safety tip: only share with trusted classmates and avoid personal info.

300

What is object locking and why is it useful?

Object locking — prevents an object from being moved or edited.

400

Name one reason a teacher might include a 3D model in a classroom presentation.

Reasons: shows different angles, clarifies spatial relationships, makes concepts more realistic.

400

What do we call digital solid-looking drawings that can be viewed from different angles?

3D models

400

What is a Trigger in the context of slide animations?

A Trigger starts an animation when a specific object is clicked, not just any click.

400

Suggest one fair way a group can divide work on a shared slide deck to avoid conflicts.

Each student owns specific slides (divide slides among group members).

400

Explain how a Trigger differs from a regular "On Click" animation in one sentence.

A Trigger is tied to clicking a particular object, whereas "On Click" usually responds to any slide click or slide advance.

500

Describe one classroom situation where a 3D model would be clearly better than a 2D picture.

Example situation: showing how a building looks from all sides; visualizing a molecule's shape in science.

500

List two clear differences between a square and a cube.

Square = flat with 4 sides and 4 corners; cube = solid with 6 faces, 12 edges, 8 corners; area vs volume.

500

What does the Morph transition do to objects that appear on consecutive slides?

Morph makes matching objects on different slides smoothly move, resize, or change between slides.

500

Name two ways a team could try to restore a previous version of a shared file after unwanted changes.

Restore a previous version via version history; check the file recycle bin or restore area.

500

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A) A Digital artifact is a file you create on a computer; a Morph transition makes objects change smoothly between slides; OneDrive is a place to save and share files.
B) A Digital artifact is a type of animation; a Morph transition is an online storage service; OneDrive is a drawing tool.
C) OneDrive is used to make shapes look 3D; Morph transition locks objects; a Digital artifact only exists on paper.
D) A Digital artifact always refers to a 3D model; Morph transition deletes slides; OneDrive is a keyboard shortcut.
