Powerpoint Skill

1. Advanced Presentation
Skills

2. Lesson Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students should be:
1. Use hyperlinks to improve their slideshow(s);
2. Embed files and data to their slideshow(s); and
3. Maximize slideshow(s) as an effective visual
aid tool.

3. Creating an Effective Presentation
1. Minimize. Keep slide counts to a minimum to maintain a clear
message and to keep the audience attentive. Remember that the
presentation is just a visual aid. Most of the information should still
come from the reporter.

4. 2.Clarity. Avoid being fancy by using a font style that is easy to read.
Make sure that it is also big enough to be read by the audience.
3. Simplicity. Use bullets or short sentences. Summarize the information on
the screen to make the audience focus on what the reporter is saying than on
reading the slide.

5. 4. Visuals. Use graphics to help in your presentation; however, too
many graphics might distract the audience. In addition, instead of using
table for data presentation, use charts and graphs.
5. Consistency. Make your design uniform. Avoid having different font
style and backgrounds per slide.

6. 6. Contrast. Use a light font on a dark background or vice versa. This
will make the text easier to read. In most instances, it is easier to read on
screen if the background is dark. This is due to the brightness of the
screen.

7. Using Hyperlinks in
Microsoft®
PowerPoint

8. What is Hyperlink????
A hyperlink is a word, phrase, or image that you can click on
to jump to a new document or a new section within the current
document. Text hyperlinks are often blue and underlined, but
don't have to be. It may be wise to insert action buttons for
most slides or place hyperlinks to your Excel file in case
your audience asks a specific question.

9. Ways how to insert hyperlinks:
1. Select an object or highlight a text
2. Go to Insert>Hyperlinks (under Link
group) or use the shortcut key Ctrl+K. The
Insert Hyperlink dialog box would appear.
