A slideshow of images in PHP is no problem, you could just cycle through the records in your database with next and prev buttons. If you want it to cycle through automaticly, you just echo a meta refresh tag in your header (ie. <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;url=http://yournewURL">)

Now that could be a problem.
Does your teacher just want to be able to view the slideshow offline without a server? If so, the only solution I can see is to generate a bunch of static pages with your php script, one for each image.
In terms of automaticly importing the images into a PowerPoint file, it might be possible, but would probably take some really impressive combination of PHP, VBscript and text files. If you decide to go that route, I can only wish you luck (if you do find a PowerPoint import solution, I would be really interested to hear about it).
Hope this helps
