Unit 5, Class 2: Visual Aids and Training Activities


Visual aids should:
> Enhance the presentation.

> Summarize main points.


> Add variety. > Be simple and clear. > Have lasting effect. > Illustrate and reinforce complex ideas or

concepts.

Used poorly, visual aids can be a distraction to an ineffective presentation.

Visual Aids Examples


PowerPoint slides. Overhead transparencies. Graphs and charts. Pictures. Films and video. Flip charts. Sketches.

13

Handouts
Handouts can be used for many purposes:
> Summary of material.

> To extend information beyond what is presented.


> To allow participation during the seminar. > To involve participants. > Follow-up material.

14
SHRM

PowerPoint Basics
Use a template. Use a set font and color scheme. Different styles are disconcerting to the audience.

15
SHRM

2009

Appropriate Composition

One major concept per slide. Heading for every slide. Simple and balanced slides.

16
SHRM

2009

Maximizing Visibility

Text must be large enough to be visible. (this is a 28 point Arial font). This is BOLD.
For comparison, this is a 14 point Times New Roman font.

Do not make transparencies directly from pages in books, reports or papers unless they can be enlarged.

17
SHRM

2009

Use of Text (6x6 Rule)

> Outline of talk only.


> Use 6X6 rule:
6 lines per slide and 6 words to line.

> Full sentences not necessary.

> Remove articles (the, a, an).


> Illustrate concepts where possible.

18
SHRM

Fonts
Choose a font that is easy to read. Roman and gothic typefaces are easier to read than Script or Old English. Do not use more than one or two font types. Avoid

getting carried away

with fonts, colors, and text


sizes.

The Color Wheel

20
SHRM

2009

Colors

Contrasting or complementary colors are those


separated by another color. Adjacent colors (next to each other) harmonize. Colors that are directly opposite from one another are said to clash.

21
SHRM

2009

Backgrounds
White on dark background should not be used if the audience is more than 20 feet away. Having a dark background on a computer screen reduces glare.

Light text on dark background is very effective for computer reading.

22
SHRM

2009

Use of Images

Use one image per slide. Use two images to provide contrast, but make them big. Draw arrows if needed for emphasis. Do not enlarge small images they blur. Do not distort the image. Credit the source.

SHRM

2009

Citation of References
Credit images on slide: > Include the name of the author, date and title of article and journal. Include references on last slide.

24
SHRM

2009

Use of Animation
Should enhance, not distract. Should not kill time. Should be subtle. Avoid animation schemes. Use same transition between slides.

25
SHRM

2009

Timing and the Number of Slides


1 slide = 2 3 minutes. Image slides may take less time. Time yourself. Leave time for questions.

26
SHRM

2009

Illustrations
Use only when appropriate. Relate to the message. Use simple diagrams.
