We are in-trainig teachers, so in the future we are going to elaborate professional works to develolp our name as teachers. We must learn to show PowerPoint Presentations as professional as possible to increase our style and to present information with clear levels of comprehensionable content. So here I am going to post many tips to get a very proficient PowerPoint Presentation. They come from a useful website:
1. Compose Slides
You must center all your attention on the content of the slide. It shall
not distract the audience but it needs elements and details to show it inductively,
so decorate it scarcely but well.
2. Use Consistency
Be consistent on font
sizes, colors, logos, pictures and all the elements that are related to the topic.
All the slides must have combined representations avoiding wide variety of flashy
colors and features. Instead of that choose simple and basic colors that show significance.
3. Use Contrast
Simple text in black is
always the best option, but take into account that it could result boring to
listeners. It is necessary to implement more colors, but trying to keep just
the needed ones to get the information highlighted in our audience´s minds.
4. Apply Brilliance
Highlight the important
parts of the text, but avoid using too much color on them because you could get
weaken the whole content of the presentation. Use the common colors that you
are managing, for example the colors of your company´s logo.
5. KISS
Keep It Straight and Simple. It means
that we never have to include complete sentences or worse, read them. If you
read your slides and if you do it slow and badly, the audience will get bored
and stop listening. Instead of that we shall include just keywords to talk
freely and naturally. We must be aware about the goal of PowerPoint
Presentations, they were designed to support you on a lecture, not to replace
your talk.
6. Take Home Message
A Take Home Message is a memorable note. We must
communicate the main one during the whole presentation expressing it as a
personal summary.
7. Add Images
It is
recommendable to use more images than words in your presentation because they help
to reinforce and complement your exposition. Use images to explain not to
decorate.
8. Don’t Be Silly
Use animations
just with academic and serious purposes, to emphasize your Take Home Message or
to clarify facts with effects that calls people´s attention.
9. Keep Your Audience In Mind
Take into
account what your audience knows previously and what do they need to learn.
Your aim should be to cover their expectations with your presentation shaped by
images, key words, and animations which are attention getters and keepers as
well. Remember if you lose
the attention of your audience, everything will be lost.
10. Practice
A
good lecture will contribute to keep audience attention. During the
presentation it will be obvious if you are aware enough about the topic you are
talking. It is advisable to practice your presentation in order to know your slides´
order and as a result of this, speak freely and confidently keeping a good rhythm
and tone of voice. Maintaining eye contact is fundamental to convince your reliability.
