Module 11 - Lesson 3
AC 3 - Prepare interactive slideshow for
presentation
August 2015
Wordy Slides
• Next few slides are contain a lot of text
rather than images in previous two
presentations.
• Using wordy slides is fine if just using
PowerPoint to communicate rather than
present, ie instead of a report
• Managers sometimes prefer just the main
points which PowerPoint is good at
Need to know more about a topic? Highlight and paste
word into search engine. Add the word powerpoint if
you want a slide show in the results.
August 2015
3.1 Present Slides
• Consider:
• Timing - how long, how many slides per minute?
• Content - text, images, tables, charts
• Meaning - what action should the audience take
afterwards?
• Organisation of information - how will it flow
• Audience needs - existing knowledge
• Location - presentation of for reading?
• Context - other presentations?
August 2015
3.2 Prepare Slides
• View and reorder slides - drag and drop
• Rehearse timing and effects - use
rehearse function
• Set up and amend slide show settings
• Print slides, handouts, speaker notes
August 2015
3.3 Check Presentation
• Spell check - it isn't automatic! Press F7
• Manual grammar check
• Orientation & layout
• Text alignment and formatting
• Accuracy & clarity
• Transitions and timings
• Choice and suitability of effects, actions
and links

5 Common Quality Problems

can be difficult to get right
4.Connectivity - video doesn't work; link is
wrong
5.Readability - can't see it at the back of the
room
