VISUAL AIDS• PowerPoint presentations →RB, p. 58, 59

• slide two: content
• last slide: sources
• Plan B: printouts, OHP, board
COMMON MISTAKES

care about the topic or the audience!
• Reading not speaking (using written language in
speech)!
• Slides take over!
• Too much text on slides (visually crowded slides)
• Voice control (volume and speed!)
• Not enough practise
