9. Lists When you have a list of information Reveal them one by one
Not all at once
Keep the animations simple
Not like those!

10. Do not do this!
Do not write very long paragraphs when you are creating a powerpoint presentation because they are difficult to read and do not look good on the screen. Besides, the information you give on a powerpoint presentation should be precise and to the point. You should not ramble on and on and on so that your audience gets bored!

11. Lists When you create lists: Keep the list to three or four points
Do not add five or six points
Avoid making sub lists like this:
Sub lists are not desirable
They make the presentation too long

12. Provide a Reference For images and Ideas

13. References
Use your reference sheet to record where the information came from
Record 5 references
This is worth many marks

14. Reminders Use many pictures
Provide a reference for your pictures on the slide
