Question

MFT spoke to math teacher Dave I. Ding to see how he uses PowerPoint presentations to teach math drills

to his students. It's a pretty short interview because it's just so simple to use.
MFT. So, Mr. Ding. I hear you've been using PowerPoint to create drill cards. Tell me more?
Dave: Well, there's not much to tell, really. You just set PowerPoint onto automated presentation and it runs
itself. Then you have some extra time for marking and lesson planning while students watch your
presentation.
MFT: Oh. So, what kind of presentations do you do?
Dave: I like to use it for the good old multiplication tables, mostly. Sometimes I like to record myself
reading them, because I have to admit to a great fondness for my own voice. I know some language arts
teachers who like to use the automated presentation for teaching students to pronounce the vowels and
other phonetics. It's really great.
MFT. I see... Well, uh, is there anything else you have to say about it?
Dave: Uhhhh... Not really... Nothing I can think of because well uh-ya - it's just so simple that I think I've
explained it already.
Read the interview above and choose the best summary below:
a. A brief overview of how to create flashcards using PowerPoint.
b. A math teacher explains how he uses PowerPoint in his class.
C. An English teacher explains how he uses PowerPoint in his class.
d. A brief overview of how to record your own voice in a PowerPoint presentation

Answer 1

b. A math teacher explains how he uses PowerPoint in his class.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given passage of the conversation between MFT and Dave I. Ding, the point seems to be the use of PowerPoint presentation to teach in class. Mr. Ding used this presentation to create drill cards which he uses on his students and also helped in giving him "some extra time for marking and lesson planning" while the students are occupied by the presentation.

But the main point of the whole passage is the interview of math teacher Mr. Ding by MFT for his use of PowerPoint presentation in his class. So, the best summary for the interview is that a math teacher explains his use of PowerPoint presentation in his class.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.
