How Do You Create A Visually Effective Powerpoint Presentation?
• Properly introduce the topic of the presentation and have a title that is clearly understandable. • Create a layout that is easy on the eyes. Typically, layouts that look distracting and too loud look amateur. Allow the content of your presentation to impress your audience. • Use bullet points. Bullet points are easy to read and understand. They will help you convey your key points. Try to limit each slide to 1 key message and no more than 6 bullet points. • Use visuals like charts and graphs. People are visual creatures. They illustrate your key message and break up the monotony of a completely text filled presentation. Use only highly effective charts and graphs and do not overload. do not use too many bells and whistles that make other visuals less effective. • Use speaker notes and avoid reading from the slides. Your presentation should be communication with your audience. Know the material well enough (adequate practice) to be able to speak confidently and address any unexpected
