16 Tips to be Covered Outlines Slide Structure Fonts Color Background
Spelling and Grammar Conclusions Questions

17 Outline 1st or 2nd slide ---- outline
Only main points on the outline slide Ex: Use the titles of each slide as main points

18 Slide Structure 1-2 slides per minute
Point / bullet form (no complete sent.) 4-5 points per slide Key words and phrases only

19 Slide Structure - Bad This page contains too many words for a presentation slide. It is not written in point form, making it difficult both for your audience to read and for you to present each point. Although there are exactly the same number of points on this slide as the previous slide, it looks much more complicated. In short, your audience will spend too much time trying to read this paragraph instead of listening to you.

20 Slide Structure – Good Showing one point at a time will:
help audience concentrate on what you are saying prevent audience from reading ahead help you keep your presentation focused

21 Slide Structure - Animation
Do not use distracting animation Do not go overboard with the animation Be consistent with the animation that you use

22 Fonts - Good Use at least an 18-point font
Use different size fonts for main points and secondary points this font: 28-point main point font: 30-point title font: 42-point Use a standard font like Times New Roman or Arial

23 Fonts - Bad Don’t use a complicated font
If you use a small font, your audience won’t be able to read what you have written CAPITALIZE ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. IT IS DIFFICULT TO READ Don’t use a complicated font

24 Color - Good Use a color of font that contrasts sharply with the background Ex: blue font on white background Use color to reinforce the logic of your structure Ex: light blue title and dark blue text Use color to emphasize a point But use this only occasionally

25 Color - Bad Using a font color that does not contrast with the background color is hard to read Using color for decoration is distracting and annoying. Using a different color for each point is unnecessary Using a different color for secondary points is also unnecessary Trying to be creative can also be bad

26 Background - Good Use backgrounds such as this one (attractive but simple) Use backgrounds which are light Use the same background consistently

27 Background – Bad Avoid backgrounds that are distracting or difficult to read from Always be consistent with the background that you use

28 Graphs Use graphs rather than just charts and words
Data - easier to comprehend & retain Trends - easier to visualize

29 Spelling and Grammar Proofread your slides for:
speling mistakes the use of of repeated words grammatical errors you might have make Have someone else check your presentation!

30 Conclusion Use an effective and strong closing
Audience is likely to remember your last words Use a conclusion slide to: Summarize the main points Suggest future avenues of research

31 Questions?? End with a simple question slide to:
Invite your audience to ask questions Provide a visual aid during question period Avoid ending a presentation abruptly
