HOW TO CREATE A GOOD POWERPOINT PRESENTATION

GUIDELINESBY SJ SHABANGU

DO NOT THINK ABOUT A VERY INCREDIBLE SLIDES

USE SLIDE JUST TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THE KEY CONCEPT, THEN YOU PROVIDE WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT

PUTTING LOT OF INFORMATION CONFUSE THE SLIDE, SO:

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SLIDE AND A DOCUMENT, YOU MUST MAKE IT RECOGNIZABLE

MAKE SURE THAT YOUR FONT IS APPROPRIATE FOR SLIDE PRESENTATION

FIND WAYS TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN FONTS

SOME FONTS ARE BETTER IN THE PAPER SOME ARE BETTER FOR PRESENTATION

USE IMAGES TO CAPTIVATE AUDIENCE

•Avoid using clip art•The image should be clear

Example:

YOUR AUDIENCE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR IMAGES

USE AN APPROPRIATE COLOR •Think about your audience when are choosing color

YOUR BACKGROUND COLOR IS IMPORTANT

YOUR BACKGROUND COLOR IS IMPORTANT
