Term explanation
A .pps file is a legacy PowerPoint slideshow format that opens directly in presentation mode rather than the editing view. Double-clicking a .pps file launches the slideshow immediately, which made it popular for distributing finished presentations to audiences. The .pps format was later replaced by .ppsx as part of Office 2007's shift to an open XML-based file structure.
LIZ AI transforms PowerPoint files into living presentations. Whether you work with .pps or .pptx, LIZ connects your slides to live data — so the deck is always ready to run, with current content.

Unlike traditional AI that responds to single prompts, agentic AI plans, decides, and executes sequences of tasks on its own, often integrating with external tools and data sources. In enterprise settings, agentic AI is increasingly used to automate complex workflows such as reporting, content creation, and communication. In the domain of presentations, this approach is realised through the Large Presentation Model (LPM) — an agentic AI system that orchestrates the entire presentation cycle in an enterprise context.
Learn moreHybrid learning combines in-person instruction with online or digital learning elements. Some students or participants engage physically in the same space as the instructor, while others join remotely or access content asynchronously. Hybrid learning offers flexibility and broader reach without fully replacing face-to-face interaction. It is widely used in universities, corporate training, and continuing education programs, particularly since remote-capable infrastructure became standard in many organizations.
Learn moreSmartArt is a built-in feature in Microsoft PowerPoint (and other Office applications) that converts text and data into visual diagrams — such as process flows, hierarchies, cycles, and relationship maps — with a single click. SmartArt removes the need to manually draw and align shapes, making it easy to create professional-looking visuals quickly. It is particularly useful for illustrating organizational structures, project workflows, and strategic frameworks in presentations.
Learn moreA classroom communication system is a technology platform that enables real-time two-way interaction between instructor and students during a class or presentation. It typically supports live polls, Q&A, quizzes, and feedback tools accessible via student devices. By facilitating ongoing dialogue rather than one-way delivery, classroom communication systems increase participation, surface misunderstandings early, and create a more dynamic learning environment for both in-person and hybrid settings.
