Lesson 5: Creating A Hyperstudio Slide Show
Aim: How can we create a slide
show about a real life superhero?
(Note: In this unit the term real-life superhero
refers to a real-life person who has positively impacted society by his
actions).
Materials: HyperStudio, completed
report created in lesson

Use the box tool from the tool bar to create a page border. Use the fill
tool to color in the border. Choose "Add a Text Object" from the
Objects menu and write the title of the slide show (name of hero).
Add an invisible button over the title text box and choose "Play a Sound"
as an action. Record the title and author with the audio tape recorder.
Copy the image of the person from the word processing document created
in lesson 4 or from the internet. Paste on the title card on HyperStudio.
Choose "Add a Button" from the Objects menu. Choose an icon for the button.
Choose "Play a Sound" and "Next Card" as actions for the button.

from the word processing document and paste it onto card 2. Add an invisible
button over the text box and choose "Add a Sound." Student will record
the reading of text in the text box.
Add a button that will take the user to card #3.
4. To create card #3:
Repeat
the steps for creating card #2 and paste the remaining text from the word
processing document.
5. Students present completed stacks to class.
Evaluation: Students will be evaluated on their ability to create a slide show that is attractive, contains a title card, the textual report, buttons to get to the next card, sound buttons on which each student's voice is recorded reading the report and photos of the person reported on.
Tip: If a class slide show is being created, each student may add one card, including all of the text from the word processing document, to a class stack. Invite parents, administrators, or other classes to view the slide show or present as an assemble program.
