Creating a magazine cover in powerpoint helps a student learn how to use powerepoint tools in the program. This program can be use for many different things other than powerpoints, it's kind of like a photoshop program as well by easy for kids to learn. Making a magazine can be a fun project for the kids to see where they want to be in the future. Not only for a teacher magazine but other professions as well.
