1. Design a template that is
free from distracting items.
Strive for simplicity and readability.

It’s best to create a template of your own that has solid background
and is free from non-essential items.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is
nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”
2. Ensure your template
promotes readability.
Choose color combinations that make it easy for the audience to
read your slides.
Reynolds (n.d)

dark background background

5. Incorporate high quality
photos, images or diagrams
6. Use phrases or
abbreviated sentences.
With the possible exception of short direct quotes, keep full
sentences in your oral presentation and off the screen. “Humans are
incapable of reading and comprehending text on a screen and
listening to a speaker at the same time. Therefore, lots of text
(almost any text!), and long, complete sentences are bad, Bad, BAD”
(Reynolds, 2010, p. 57).
7. Use bullet points sparingly.

If using bullet points, be sure they are less than six


words long.

reinforce a key concept.

tables and graphs.
11. Create a handout to accompany your

presentation.

detailed information such as (depending on your content) complex
charts, data, analysis, and references.
12. Be passionate about your
topic.
