Google Slides is a cloud-based presentation application that allows you to design slide decks and collaborate.

You can format text on your slides using smart-editing and styling tools.

You can also add and edit a variety of non-text elements, including images, videos, tables, and graphs and present your ideas to a large group, like a team meeting or a conference.

In this lesson, you will: Insert a table, create a diagram, add charts, and share your presentation with others.

This lesson uses a planning presentation for a fundraiser organized by a community group.

But you can apply these skills in any presentation, whether it is for a business organization, a community group or just your family.

As you complete this lesson, you will add data to your Google Slides presentation.

Formatting information with charts, tables, and diagrams can make it easier for your audience to understand a lot of information.

Using these visual representations also can make your presentation more compelling.

For example, charts make your information and research clear and persuasive.
