Presentation Points To present or not to present? Keep text short and simple Bullets to highlight key ideas Do not get distracted with fancy designs Avoid fancy fonts Check font/background contrast
Necessary Text Block? If you must have a block of text, then leave the text on the screen long enough for everyone to read the text. Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
More presentation points Avoid secondary programs if possible: integrate material into presentation Avoid auto-timed slides, keep manual control Do charts in Excel, paste them in!
