The headline should be a complete sentence that makes an assertion which is no more than two lines
Photograph, drawing, diagram, or graph supporting the headline assertion This file presents a template for making Assertion–Evidence (A–E) slides in a technical presentation. The design advocated by this template arises from pages of The Craft of Scientific Presentations (Springer, 2003) and from the first Google listing for “presentation slides”: To follow this template, make sure that you create the slide within this PowerPoint file. Working with a New Slide (under Insert in older versions or as a button on the Home tab in version 2007) , you should first craft a sentence headline that states an assertion about your topic. Having no assertion translates to having no slide. In the body of the slide, you should then support that headline assertion visually: photographs, drawings, diagrams, equations, or words arranged visually. Use supporting text only where necessary. Do not use bulleted lists, because bulleted lists do not reveal the connections between details. This slide shows one orientation for the image and supporting text. Other orientations exist, as shown in the sample slides that follow. Call-out, if needed: no more than two lines

[AOPA Air Safety Foundation accident database, 2008]
Ice on airplanes reduces the performance of flights and accounts for numerous fatal accidents [www2.tech.purdue.edu, 2008] [airdisaster.com, 2008] This slide was created by Mark DeAngelo, an aerospace engineering student. The slide served as the first slide of his problem speech. Notice that the headline serves as the thesis of the problem speech. Notice that in this case the visual evidence maps the two main points of the talk. 1982 to 2007: 141 fatal flights [AOPA Air Safety Foundation accident database, 2008]
