GET TO KNOW YOUR TOPIC

• Your professor assigned you a topic and you
  immediately go to your computer and start
  thinking how to make a design for your text boxes
  and text.

• DONT BE IN SUCH A HURRY! You have to know your
  topic very well to proceed to creating slides in
  PowerPoint.

GET TO KNOW YOUR TOPIC

• Instead of starting PowerPoint, LAUNCH YOUR
  BROWSER AND FIND INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR
  TOPIC. You have to know what you will be
  including in you presentation so look for
  necessary information.

• You will get to create the slide show later. It
  is more important to find what to use before
  actually using it.

5
KEYWORDS ABOUT THE TOPIC

• Most topics for PowerPoint contain keywords.
  These elements are used by good presenters at a
  constant basis.

• It is recommended to use only the relevant
  information that would be interesting to your
  viewer.

KEYWORDS ABOUT THE TOPIC

• Also the presenter should narrow the selected
  topic and retrieve only several elements to
  discuss in the presentation.

• The audience does not need to know everything
  about the topic, only relevant and important
  points.

FOR EXAMPLE, if you are making presentation about
WWII, you dont need to tell everything from the
beginning to the end. Examine how it was started,
how it affected your country and what outcomes
can be learned for the future.

REMOVE THAT TEXT

• DONT WORRY! You wont have to use only pictures
  and tables (although it is also a good idea).

• Many college students failed their presentations
  because they had too much text on their slides.

REMOVE THAT TEXT

• FOR EXAMPLE, they included their entire speech or
  big parts of it.

• The essence of PowerPoint presentation suggests
  that it should support your text and not be a
  mirror of it.

MAKE SURE YOU DONT HAVE PARAGRAPHS OF TEXT IN
YOUR PRESENTATION AND USE MORE BULLETS.

LIMIT THE NUMBER OF SLIDES

AVOID CHILDISH PRESENTATION

• The most widely used fonts in professional
  presentations are Arial, Times New Roman and
  Verdana.
• Dont be discouraged if your favorite font is not
  included in this list.
• Save it to use for other time because using some
  fonts can make your presentation look childish or
  unprofessional.

AVOID CHILDISH PRESENTATION

• It is also recommended not to use more than two
  fonts in one presentation because it can ruin the
  consistency of the style.
• Use one font for headings and the second on for
  other text.
• The text should be large enough for viewers to
  see them.
• Good presenters often use 18 and 24 pt for the
  text size to make it readable.
