Presentation Tips for Powerpoints

    • Limit one main idea for each slide.
    • Keep the text simple - differnt types of font and use of bold, italics, and underlining should be minimal.
    • Use phrases or brief sentences, but be able to elaborate more when speaking.
    • Choose a larger font size so it can be seen from the back of the room – 24 pt. or larger recommended.
    • Use contrasting colors for text and background so it is easy to see and read.
    • Include graphics, photographs, charts, or diagrams.
    • Use consistent slide transitions, too many different transitions can be distracting.
    • Use a readable font.
