8. 8 General Content Guidelines Design Principle: KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!) Readers read faster than you speak Simplify your points on the slide to prevent them from reading ahead Use bullets on slide only as memory aids for your presentation Try not to read slides directly to audience Improve readability/visibility for audience with larger font sizes Don’t write full sentences – outline only Limit each slide: 5-6 key points Limit each point: 5-6 words per point
