2. http://eglobiotraining.com/PresentingWith PowerPoint PowerPoint is an easy-to-use presentation tool but, like with any tool, its use is only as effective as the presenter who is using it. In putting together your slideshow, youve obviously considered key elements such as: Who is the audience? What do they already know about the material? What do you want them to learn by the end of the lecture? Where will the presentation take place and under what conditions? 3. http://eglobiotraining.com/ Now that youve had a chance to learn about designing slides, lets talk about what to do once youve finished putting your presentation slides together, youve got your computer plugged into the projector, and all eyes are on you in the classroom. 4. http://eglobiotraining.com/10 Best Practices inPresenting with PowerPoint 5. http://eglobiotraining.com/#1 Think about goals and purpose of handouts.Many instructors hand out PowerPoint presentations as thumbnails before thelecture starts or make them available on Blackboard for students to print and bring toclass as a note-taking tool. The handouts are useful to give students a structure totheir note taking, but many students are over-reliant on the handouts and fail to writemuch down. Some students simply highlight text on the thumbnail. If you aredistributing handouts of your slides before your lecture, be sure to discuss withstudents your goals for doing so and your expectations of what roles the handouts willserve for them. Those same goals will inform your decisions on how you format thepages for printing, as well. 6. # 2 Minimize thenumber of slides. Beginning users of PowerPoint tend to use too much text and toomany slides, leaving their audience dazed and confused. Dontoverwhelm your students with too many slides. Each slide should bedisplayed long enough for you to discuss what is keyed there notsimply to read a list or block of text. To discourage yourself fromreading slides, use fewer slides with concise text. See more about thisin #3. 7. http://eglobiotraining.com/ #3 Dont parrot PowerPoint. Its tempting to simply read the visual presentation to the class, and sometimes instructors find themselves doing that, particularly when they are crunched for time. But, not only is that redundant almost like reading out loud from the textbook! it also makes for an excruciatingly boring audience experience. PowerPoint is intended to provide a visual element to spoken remarks that augment and discuss what is displayed. And, keep in mind that 99% of the time, you should be looking at your students, not the projection screen or your computer screen. 8. http://eglobiotraining.com/#4 Hold up your end.Many students have stronger visual skills than auditory skills,and so PowerPoint is effective in holding their attention.Unfortunately, that can be a problem. Students can easilyzone out and watch your slide like a television while you aretalking. Make sure that you are in their foreground thatwhat you are saying and how you are saying it is compellingenough to keep them focused on you, and not on your slides. 9. http://eglobiotraining.com/#5 Time your talk .Keeping in mind student attention and learning styles, rememberthat another potential problem occurs when your importantcomments coincide precisely with the appearance of a freshPowerPoint slide. Having the simultaneous visual andauditoryinput splits your students attention, and its likely thatthe visualinput will win out. Bring up a new slide, and then give yourstudents a chance to check it out before you begin verballybroadening and amplifying whats on the screen. 10. http://eglobiotraining.com/#6 Give it a rest.We cant say it too often PowerPoint is mosteffective as a visual accompaniment to the spoken word, not asthe vehicle for all of the content of a lecture. Dont be shy aboutblanking the screen on occasion when you need your students tofocus on you. Youll find that blanking the screen is an effectivemeans by which to change the energy from watching and listeningto interaction, such as a group discussion or a question-andanswersession. 11. http://eglobiotraining.com/#7 Make it interactive.Its easy to get into a PowerPoint rut, outlining your notes andadding variety by occasionally mixing up the background orthrowing in a video or hyperlink. But PowerPoint can be usedinteractively as well. Ask students to anticipate information onan upcoming slide, or use PowerPoint for interactive gamesusing action buttons, for instance. 12. http://eglobiotraining.com/#8 Mix up the media.Putting a range of media into your PowerPoint styles.PowerPoint allows you to bring in many different kinds ofmedia --including graphic images, colored andtexturedbackgrounds, photographs, sound files, videoclips, animations, and of course, text. You can alsohyperlink pages within the presentation to Web pages, aswell as to other pages within the presentation. 13. http://eglobiotraining.com/#9 Hide your pointerSince powerpoint can easily steal the show, you want to make sure thatyou do everything you can to keep distractions to a minimum. Somestudents are easily distracted when the pointer (the arrow) moves acrossthe screen during the presentation. (This happens when you move themouse in the slide show view.) To circumvent this problem, use the arrowkeys to navigate slides or hide the pointer. To hide the pointer, once theslide show view is started, press the ctrl-l key combination. This hides thepointer even if the mouse moves. If you need to display the pointer duringthe presentation, press the ctrl-a key combination. 14. http://eglobiotraining.com/#10Rehearsebeforepresenting.Even if youve given a lecture a thousand times withoutPowerPoint, its going to go a little differently when you use aPowerPoint presentation. Practicing your presentation in theslideshow view in your office will help you anticipate anyglitches that you didnt see when you were focused on gettingcontent onto your slides. 15. http://eglobiotraining.com/Know YourMoves 16. http://eglobiotraining.com/In addition to being a smooth presenter,youll need to make sure you know the basickeyboarding techniques for technicallymoving through your presentation. Differentpresenters use different key options. Findthe ones that work well for you, and soontheyll be second nature. 17. http://eglobiotraining.com/a.

Sample of ppt. 26. http://eglobiotraining.com/ 1. Content2. Fonts3. Color 27. http://eglobiotraining.com/CONTENT1. A general guideline is to use no more than 6 lines perslide.2. Use simple, short sentences and parallel construction.(You may also use QUOTED words or phrases.---authors3. Whenever possible convey ideas with IMAGES ---people retain visual information better than text.4. Check spelling, homonyms and meaning---print a copyand ask someone else to PROOF or EDIT it.5. When using graphs and charts, use TEXT sparingly 28. http://eglobiotraining.com/FONTS1. Use Sans serif fonts such as ARIAL, FRANKLIN GOTHIC, GILLS SANS OR AVNTE GARDE. They are simpler, clearer, and show up better on the screen. Serif Fonts such as Times and Palatino tend to blur when projected.2. Use fonts 24 points or larger so that your audience can read your presentation. The size of your fonts should be limited by how far your audience will be from the screen. The greater the distance, the LARGER the font needed.3. Choose fonts which suit your message. What feeling tone does your font convey? A font for a humorous presentation may not be appropriate for a BUSINESS meeting.4. Use italic fonts sparingly---they can be DIFFICULT to see. 29. http://eglobiotraining.com/COLOR1. Use colors which COMPLEMENT one another.2. LIGHT colors on dark backgrounds are easiestfor audiences to see.3. Avoid colors which do not provide enoughcontrast. For instance, red letters on a dark bluebackground are almost IMPOSSIBLE to see. 30. http://eglobiotraining.com/SOURCE: Dela Cruz, Marilou et al. ExploringResearch.
