A heating element is a device which converts electricity into heat energy using the method of joule heating. Somewhat similar to an incandescent light, electricity is run through a specially developed connection. However, rather than producing light, the resistive heating elements generate heat.

Power Point is a piece of computer software which presents text and media using numbered graphical pages ("slides"). This program is owned and maintained by Microsoft, and is included with most distributions of Microsoft Office. It was originally called Presenter,[1] and destined for Macintosh systems. PowerPoint is the number 1 program used throughout the world for presentations.[2]
Features
PowerPoint is used primarily with a digital projector to display the slides directly from a computer. However, it can also be used to print digital "slides" as overhead transparencies or 35mm slides.[3] Additionally, slideshows can be published as webpages,[2] or printed on regular paper, with one or more slides on each page. Slides can contain text, images, videos, audio, charts, graphs, and more. This content can be added directly, or imported from other office files. For example, spreadsheets (even if they include graphs) can be inserted into a slide.
