Inside Body is a PowerPoint template that pupils use to produce their own ICT presentations on the effects of a substance on the body. By completing this activity pupils improve their ability to select relevant information for a presentation, develop their ICT skills and increase their knowledge on the effects of alcohol, tobacco and solvents on the human body.

Inside Body is an interesting alternative to producing posters or leaflets. The high quality appearance of the work appeals to pupils with poor literacy or presentation skills. More able pupils are encouraged to think carefully about their audience, the relevance of the information they select to use and where further information can be found.

A PowerPoint presentation consists of a series of slides that can include images and/or text. More advanced presentations may also include sounds and movie clips.
Some pupils may already be familiar with PowerPoint, and those who are not can learn the basics very quickly. The presentation template has deliberately been kept very simple to facilitate this.

Pupils are provided with a background resource document from which to select information. They insert this text into their presentation. They choose relevant pathological images, which are provided on the PowerPoint template, and use these to illustrate their presentation. They can also insert information that they have researched from other sources.

The resource is presented as:

  • Three PowerPoint templates containing pathological slides illustrating the harmful effects of alcohol, tobacco or solvents on the body.
  • Three background information documents with a range of information on each substance.
  • Web addresses for further information.
  • Pupil sheets on designing a presentation and using PowerPoint.
