A presentation I am giving to the postgraduate students taking the E-Business Management and Policy course. Spring Term. Birkbeck, University of London.
Your name, etc.squeezed in the corner is anyhow unreadable and makes slide more crammed.
Suggest to take it off or put it in large fonts on last page
the things I want to know: a slide for each title in large bold font top and lower the sub-title
see the links sent to you on twitter and you will understand how to move from .ppt to a more lively presentation. It's very hard work if you have for so many years (as me) done bulleted ppt.....
Keep only what should be remembered on the slides rest goes on your notes and make sure to write a short text like an exec summary as a handout
Good luck and success
Regarding text on presentations, I'm fan more to the Takahashi method http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takahashi_method than anything else. I'm not talking about the graphics however, just that I prefer short, strong sentences to be the only text on screen and the rest to be filled in by the narrative. Of course, this sadly means more slides. In that respect, slide #7 is probably the best around.
However, most slides aren't bad at all. The most text heavy ones could benefit from a split, but I think more merit would come from increasing the font size on the, now just bold, secondary headings since they're probably the only thing what most will bother to read.
Still, since I understand that this is an academic setting, possibly a graded one, I feel that the comprehensiveness of the text will get some points and would be risky to do without.
About the graphics, they're aren't a lot of them actually, but they feel more than adequate since there's only that much slides.
I love the first 3 slides cause they create a story. more of that please!
The side graphic adds consistency but feels like a wasted opportunity to deliver extra punctuation to the slides.
Changing the color/filter depending on the feeling of the slide or keeping them the same but changing pictures would be a nice idea.
Hey, and seeing it over and over again just makes it grow on me. I give it an 8: Well thought out and executed but I still have my reservation whether it'll will work live.
Would still be the best brochure though.
