DefinitionPresentation software (プレゼンテーションソフト) is software for creating slides for a talk and showing them one at a time while you explain to an audience.
ExplanationEach slide holds headings, bullet points, diagrams and charts, and during the talk the slides are shown full screen in order as a slide show. Transition effects between slides can be added, as can animations that bring in text and shapes one by one. Ready-made illustrations pasted onto pages or slides to improve their look are called clip art (クリップアート), and they are usually picked from a collection of such material.
AnalogyIt is like a stack of flip cards you turn over one by one as you speak, except you make them and show them on a screen.
Memory hook"Present" means to hold something out in front of someone. Picture material held up in front of the audience for them to see.
