LESSON OBJECTIVES
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 information should still come from the
reporter.
TIP: TOO WORDY
Too many words! Your presentation is meant to keep
you on task and aid you during your presentation.You do
not want to have your audience reading this while you
are presenting. They will be too busy reading to listen to
your message. PowerPoint should only contain short
statements to enhance your message.
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. Once start making your presentation, consider
how big the screen is during your report.
Tip: A font size of 72 is about an inch (depends on the screen size). A one-
inch letter is readable 10 feet away; a two-inch letter is readable 20 feet
away.
3. Simplicity
Use bullets or short sentences. Summarize
the information on the screen to have your
audience focus on what the speaker is saying than
on reading the slide. Limit the content to six lines
and seven words per line. This is known as the 6 x
7 rule.
4. Visuals
Use graphics to help in your presentation but
not too many to distract the audience. In addition,
instead of using a table of data, use charts and
graphs.
5. Consistency
Make your design uniform. Avoid having
different font styles and backgrounds.
6. Contrast
Use light font on dark background or vice
versa. This is done so that it is 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.
