Question 1 Report
Fig. 1 shows the intended layout for slide 2 of a presentation created by a museum assistant. The presentation introduces visitors to a temporary exhibition about early map-making. The assistant has a folder containing two scanned map images, a museum logo and a text document with exhibition opening times. The presentation must be suitable for a touchscreen display, so all text must be large enough to read from a short distance. The assistant needs to create the remaining slides using the same visual style as Fig. 1. The final file must be saved as maps_exhibition.pptx. The assistant should check that images do not cover the footer text before the document is resaved.
(a) Create slide 2 so that it follows the layout shown in Fig. 1. [3]
(b) Explain why a short bulleted text list is more suitable than a full paragraph on this slide. [2]
Answer Details
(a) Reproduce the specified hierarchy: a clear, large title at the top, one supplied map image in the left-hand image area, concise relevant bullet points in the right-hand text area, and a footer containing the museum logo and exhibition dates. Ensure that the image does not cover the footer and that all text is large enough for touchscreen users to read. [3]
(b) A short bulleted list is quicker to scan than a full paragraph and uses less screen space. This lets the map remain important and supports the visitor’s attention rather than overwhelming them with text. Any two of these reasons gain credit. [2]
