10 PowerPointPresentation TipsCompose slides – Don’t

copy and paste from a bunch of different places.

Use consistency – Choose the same colours and font styles throughout. This includes the background template.

Use contrast – Black on white is always the most effective and most boring choice. But, whatever your choice don’t make your audience strain.

Apply brilliance – Use colours to highlight your points. But, don’t weaken your message by including too much on one slide.

KISS – Keep It Straight and Simple. Use Keywords. Make an attempt not to read your slides directly.

10 PowerPointPresentation TipsTake Home Messages

– What you want the audience to leave with; a summary.

Use Images – Not just to decorate, but to exhibit or explain.

Don’t be silly – Overusing animations and media. Use them to clarify and model your ‘take home point’.

Keep your audience in mind – Nothing else already covered matters if you lose the attention of your audience.

Practice – Know the slides. Edit the slides. Speak to the audience.
