If you want to do it, do it RIGHT !

We just finished learning about how to make a proper PowerPoint presentation. We have to turn our posters into a PowerPoint presentation and we only get this class and the next class to work on it. There are many rules to making a good presentation.
- The most important part of your presentation is the presenter.
- Don't read your information off your PowerPoint because you never know what could happen to the presentation. For example: your computer can break or have technical problems or your screen. So your PowerPoint should be assisting you not the other way around.
- Always face your audience when your presenting.
- Don't use flashing lights, moving pictures or text, or sounds because it takes the focus off you and the audience can't focus on what your saying and they'll get distracted.
-Instead of looking at your PowerPoint, use the small computer that's in front of you.
- Always start out with ''Hi my name is ... and today I'd like to talk to you about ... ''
- Its more professional if your tittle on the tittle page is the same font as your sub tittles for starting a new page.
- The minimum font size should be 24. Its better if you use bigger size font so that your audience can see more clearly.
- Always use important jot notes and never write paragraphs.
- Always site where you got your pictures and information from, properly.
- Use clip art for your pictures.

So those are some factors you should consider when you are doing a PowerPoint presentation. And hopefully they will help.

Byee .
