12 questions to validate PowerPoint & Outlook: generating from Word, recycling a deck, email drafts, thread summary and coaching.
Answer everything, then click Check: your score and explanations will appear.

3.1 · Recall

1. Copilot generates a more reliable presentation from…

A desktop wallpaper A well-styled Word document (Heading 1/2) A blurry photo of the whiteboard The sound of the printer

Slide quality follows source quality: a structured Word document produces a faithful outline.

3.1 · Application

2. Hicham turns his report from Algiers into a deck for Monday. He writes…

“Put animations everywhere without reading the report” “Print the report very large” “Create a presentation from [activity-report.docx]: 10 slides max, summary, speaker notes” “Guess my presentation without reading anything”

Generation from the sourced document, framed (slides, summary, notes), then outline validated.

3.1 · Arbitration

3. The generated V1 shows a surprising figure. Correct decision before the committee?

Delete all slides with figures Check every figure against the source report before presenting Change the theme to hide the figure Present it as is, AI is never wrong

Especially from a prompt, figures must be checked: a wrong slide in a meeting is costly.

3.2 · Recall

4. “One slide, one idea” is…

A double-sided printing option The name of a keyboard layout An email sorting rule The golden rule of slide decks that Copilot helps apply

Copilot spots overloaded slides and suggests lightening them, one idea per slide.

3.2 · Application

5. Hicham recycles an inherited 45-slide deck for 20 minutes. He writes…

“Summarize in 12 slides, one idea per slide, harmonize the style, add notes” “Add 30 more slides to be complete” “Shuffle the order at random” “Delete the file and restart everything by hand”

Condense to a target, clarify, harmonize — then reread the narrative thread.

3.2 · Application

6. After condensing, Hicham fears a lost transition. He…

Prints the deck to check it by smell Sends the deck without reopening it Rereads the story to check that the narrative thread still holds Adds animations to compensate

Condensing can break the thread: re-reading the meaning remains essential.

3.3 · Recall

7. “Draft with Copilot” in Outlook is for…

Automatically sorting spam Turning a few keywords into a complete email, with adjustable tone and length Shutting down the computer remotely Changing the mailbox password

You describe objective, tone and length; Copilot writes the base, you finalize.

3.3 · Application

8. Hicham declines the Thursday meeting without offending. He writes…

“Write anything, I have no time” “Reply NO in capitals” “Politely decline, explain the constraint, suggest Friday 2pm, warm tone, 5 lines max” “Forward the message to the whole department”

Objective + concrete alternative + tone + length: the framing that avoids the standard essay.

3.3 · Arbitration

9. The draft is ready, the email is sensitive and commits the department. Correct decision?

Leave the smooth corporate tone untouched Send then proofread afterwards Click Send immediately to save time Proofread (recipient, tone, commitments, promised attachments) and add your touch before sending

Email goes out under your name: never send without proofreading, especially on a high-stakes message.

3.4 · Application

10. Hicham picks up a 30-email thread about a dispute. He starts with…

“Summarize this thread: decisions, open points, what is expected of me” then extracting his actions Reading the 30 messages one by one at midnight Deleting the thread to start clean Randomly replying to the last message

Summarizing picks up the case in 30 seconds; extraction uncovers buried to-dos.

3.4 · Application

11. Before sending his delicate reply, Hicham runs coaching. He gets…

An archiving of the thread An immediate automatic send A translation into Spanish An assessment of tone, clarity and reader perception, with suggestions

Coaching is a neutral second look: it flags, for example, a tone perceived as curt.

3.4 · Arbitration

12. Coaching judges the reply “too curt” but the deadline must stay firm. Correct decision?

Keep judgment: soften the form if useful, maintain justified firmness Never use coaching Blindly soften until firmness disappears Ignore coaching without reading it

Coaching advises, it does not decide: a direct tone is sometimes exactly what is needed.
