Guidelines for Preparing Slides Instructional Computing Facility

Outline Formats are Easier to Follow

Use Bullets, Not Numbers Bullets imply no significant order Use numbers only to show rank or sequence

No More than One Topic per Slide What about them Sox hey?

6 lines of text 6 words per line Use the 6 X 6 rule: 6 lines of text 6 words per line

Allow plenty of room around borders and illustrations

Select Readable Type Size This is 40 point Minimum 36 point for titles 24 point for body text This is 32 point 45 point 40 point 35 point 30 point 25 point 20 point 15 point 10 point

Use a Readable Typeface and Font Use Sans serif (no curly feet) such as Arial or universal for body text Use San serif (no curly feet) such as Arial or universal for body text Use serif such as a roman for titles only Use a Readable Typeface and Font

Typeface Examples Typeface Examples Arial Times New Roman Courier New GillSans

Adjust Lettering to discriminate or emphasize Make titles a larger type size than body elements emphasize important statements or words with bold, italic, larger size or different fonts.

Adjust Lettering to discriminate or emphasize Make titles a larger type size than body elements emphasize important statements or words with bold, italic, larger size or different fonts.

Choose Color Carefully Use the same color consistently throughout the presentation Use light letters on a dark background

To determine if a slide is legible when projected, hold it up to a light; if it is readable, it is probably fine

Colors Avoid placing saturated primary colors (red, green or blue) adjacent to each other. They may create a third color where the two colors meet.

Use Solid Colors instead of fill Patterns on Charts Patterns on bars or pie slices cause confusion. Solid colors convey a clear bold message

Your Slides are Not your Presentation Your slides are a focus for your presentation Your presentation is not proof of your thesis Your paper is proof You present your proof with slides to focus interest on what you think is important

You can’t stop talking Recall: You cannot start talking until the audience has finished reading But: You can’t stop talking So: You end up reading your slide to the audience. Which is: Really annoying

Use Simple Tables to Present Numbers Try not to make footnotes too small

Clipart Add Clipart where appropriate If ever

Pictures and Bitmaps
