OverviewOverviewGood PowerPoint presentations:• Are an example of your creativity• Use many “old” (but good!) techniques
of teaching• Capitalize on multi-media capabilities;
backgrounds, colour, fonts, animations, sound and movies to ADD to the presentation
• Organize and enhance information• The following slides give pointers for
techniques, accepted “standards” and ideas for development

• Colour has “meaning”• Contrast is a key
factor for text• Use a colour wheel for
relationships • Use the work of
professionals as models for choosing colours – look atmagazines and TV for clues

FontsFonts• Sans Serif family considered most readable• NEVER use more than 2 or 3 fonts on a screen and
rarely six in a presentation (it distracts)• Perhaps use one for titles; one for body text• Above all, be consistent
Examples of the San Serif Family
Arial Rounded Bold Tahoma Comic Sans MS ImpactLucida Century Gothic

Text Size and AmountText Size and Amount• Generally use 18 - 24 pt

to see if fonts are readable• Six bullets - considered
a maximum for onescreen
• Font size will essentiallydictate the number of words on a screen

Text/image spacingText/image spacing• Leave ample margins – crowding the screen
confuses people – use bullets and your voice!• Use the View > Master View to set sizes (and
colours) before you begin

AnimationsAnimations• The goal is control of the content to maximize understanding
• Animations can help or hinder
• Standardize on a few per presentation
• NEVER use Random as a choice

• Listen up• This is important
• Here’s the secret . . • Gotcha!

AnimationsAnimations• They can reveal a process so that you can explain more
• They can focus attention within a scene
• They can ALWAYS control the pace of learning

Slide TransitionsSlide Transitions• The goal is a clear flow to make sense of unfolding information
• Transitions can help or hinder
• Standardize on a few per presentation
• NEVER use Random as a choice • Sound familiar?

Sounds and moviesSounds and movies• Rarely use sound effects: they distract
• Music can add a mood to a presentation just like a movie
• Always make music fade out in sync
• Use videos in small parts for adding comments
Watch for how things move
Are the following motionsthe same or different?
Control of information and breaking down learning are the goals

Use of Screen TextUse of Screen Text• RARELY read much of the text on the screen –
your audience can read!• Add to it OR pick out words • Add highlights to direct their eyes and attention
Good PowerPoint presentations:• Are an example of your creativity• Use many “old” (but good!) techniques of teaching• Capitalize on multi-media capabilities • Organize and enhance information

Presentation Techniques and FlowPresentation Techniques and Flow• There is a critical relationship between:
– you and what you say – the room (“fixed” learning environment)– your audience – visual material (controllable environment)
• A “story approach” is always safe
• Try mini-story “asides” to increase impact
• Make slides reveal a logical flow of information

Done? Done? -- Final Editing ChecklistFinal Editing Checklist• Can you cut down on the screen text?
– you can add live comments to expand/clarify• Is there a graphic/image to give a more
memorable impact or enhances text? – together they are more effective
• Does information “flow and grow” from slide to slide?– organized material is easier to learn
• Is there a “beginning, middle, and end”?– a story approach is a proven learning vehicle!
