The office suite known as Microsoft Office has several programs that are very successful in the student and professional world, such as PowerPoint, a program that allows you to prepare a presentation and which, despite its popularity, has functions that go unnoticed.
PowerPoint includes a feature that allows you to record the screen and insert this content into the presentation, so that it can be read during the presentation. This element is found in the “Insert” tab.

Finally, by clicking on “Record”, the recording starts, and we can pause or end it to generate a video that will be added to the slide.
