This is the stage for your presentation.

•Consistent•Easy on the eyes•Keeps attention on content•Much easier to create

Don’t overload your slide1. Use larger fonts

2.Don’t spend too much time on any one Slide3. Too much information leads to limitedcontent retention4. Use the rule of fours• Don’t use more than 4 bullets• If you must use more than 4, use grouping• If you can’t group, make a new slide

5. Notice how this slide looked when you first saw it.

6. Don’t do this to those poor students

Keep slides stupid simple!

•Content is crystal clear•Content is organized •Content is relevant •Content is brief

Contrast is key

Consider backgrounds that will

make your text most visible

…but not irritating to the eye

Anchor text to the left

•Keep text in close proximity to each other.•Use familiar, easy to read fonts.•Use graphics sparingly.

DON’T USE ALL CAPS

•Don’t space text so far apart

•Don’t use hard to read fonts•Don’t overuse graphics

• Its not an 80’s party announcement…or is it?

…and if at all possible,don’t use a slide show.
