Communication Workshop For Research Engineers Presentation: Preparing presentation slides Ian F. C. Smith, EPFL Lynne C. Dennis

Slides make your research understood rapidly easy to remember standout by the quality of your presentation Just because you understand your research, doesn’t mean they will. Help your audience by keeping it simple. Remember

Presentation slides contain images (photos, drawings, figures, diagrams, charts…) text bullet points for lists colors white space in between consistent design

Figures and diagrams Simplify to one important conclusion per figure. Use one figure or diagram per slide. Label simply. Captions could include important conclusions. « introduce, describe, observe, conclude »

Text recommendations Select font for relevance. Use limited variations of the chosen typeface. Keep same typefaces throughout the presentation. Do not make words smaller than 24pt. Consider the spacing and alignment. Ensure the text contrasts sufficiently with the background.

File sizes and formats Remember that a presentation may be shared in different formats projection printing photocopies Do everything you can to make your presentation file as small as possible. Images (photos and figures) are  reduced for Powerpoint presentations  enriched for printing  modified to black & white in large-run photocopies
