The current study investigates the attitudes of ELT majors toward the use of PowerPoint in group presentations and how they use the software when presenting. Data were collected via questionnaire, interview, and class observation. The results indicate that the majority of ELT majors have positive attitudes toward the use of PowerPoint in group presentations for their user-friendly quality and multimedia functions with various audio-visual features. Group members usually prepare slides individually, then one of them combines all the slides to create a slideshow.
