Top 10 slide tips!

Editor's Notes

  • #3 The less clutter you have on your slide, the more powerful your visual message will become.
  • #4 Whenever you can switch out words for a picture..do it!
  • #5 Your slides should have plenty of “white space” or “negative space.” Do not feel compelled to fill empty areas on your slide with your logo or other unnecessary graphics or text boxes that do not contribute to better understanding.
  • #6 Limit fancy movement and distractions. You should use simple and professional transitions such as slide left and slide right.
  • #7 Never simply stretch a small, low-resolution photo to make it fit your layout – doing so will degrade the resolution even further.Avoid using PowerPoint Clip Art or other cartoonish line art.
  • #8 No audience will be excited about a cookie-cutter presentation, and we must therefore shy away from any supporting visuals, such as the ubiquitous PowerPoint Design Template, that suggests your presentation is formulaic or prepackaged.
  • #9 Always pick an appropriate charts for our data. Never put too much info in a chart it will confuse your audience and clutter your slides.
  • #10  The right color can help persuade and motivate. Studies show that color usage can increase interest and improve learning comprehension and retention.
  • #11  Use the same font set throughout your entire slide presentation, and use no more than two complementary fonts
  • #12 People comprehend better when information is presented in small chunks or segments.
