13. Additional Presentation Notes
Keep info on the slides to a minimum so that people will be able to read it quickly and the words won’t go on and on and on in a run on sentence because that is very bad!
Provided detailed descriptions in the slide notes if needed for future reference.
Do not decrease the font size to less than 20.
Avoid animation and the use of colors that are hard to see such as yellow.
If you don’t delete this slide we will give you a hard time. 
