Compose Slides
• Do not copy/paste• Simple design – no distractors• Easy to read font• Allow room for images• Decorate selectively• Message not restricted by design
![Page 3: Power point 101 1](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/555d81f6d8b42a3a3b8b4c38/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Be Consistent
• Same font• Same font size• Match colors• Same design
![Page 4: Power point 101 1](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/555d81f6d8b42a3a3b8b4c38/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Use Contrast
• Black text on white background = good, but boring• Keep good contrast so text is easy to read

Apply Brilliance
• Use color to highlight your message• Do not use too many colors at once• Match colors for design and good contrast
(carefully!)

K.I.S.S.

freely

Take Home Message

presentation• A summary

Images
• Should be relevant• Not for decoration• Reinforce or complement the message• Visualization and explanation• Can say more than a thousand words
