Embed Audio Narration in Microsoft Powerpoint 2007/2010

Now more than ever, multimedia has become an important aspect for online courses. This is true from both a development aspect AND a student aspect. Particularly concerning any course classified as a TxVSN course, one of the general requirements is that students must submit some kind of multimedia presentation. One option for this multimedia requirement is creating an audio-narrated powerpoint.

Students (and even some professors) are not familiar enough with Powerpoint to know how to record and embed the audio narration so that it can be moved as one file.

At the request of a professor, I created a Captivate tutorial for "How to Record Audio Narration in Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2007". The tutorial is general enough that it can be used by professors that need to know how to use it to create course lectures or by students creating assignment presentations.

Update (7/3/12) : This tutorial should also work for anyone using Office 2010 as well.
