POWERPOINT GUIDANCE
Almost every week you have a power point presentation due.
Normally you would want to follow presentation guidelines and minimize the amount of words you have on a screen and add lots of visuals.
HOWEVER since I am your audience it is ok to put a lot of text on a slide. I would prefer you put extra text on the side and PLEASE DO NOT USE the notes sections. I cannot see them in the grading tool.
Here’s a general check list of things to check for when preparing your presentation:
- Chose a background to suits your topic.
- Start with a title page. Include the title and your name.
- Each slide should have a heading
- Add images as appropriate
- Add text on the slide to make your points (please do not use the notes section)
- It’s ok to have more screens that required to get the information across
- Make sure all your text is readable. Does it overlap on a background color that makes it unreadable?
- The font size should be no smaller than 14
- Check your spelling and punctuation
- Make sure you have a reference slide.
