Keep oral presentations brief—around 5 minutes—so you don't lose the class's attention.
Slide Count
Limited to 5–7 slides max to prevent text-heavy, boring slides.
Visuals
Include photos of the campus, the mascot, or a specific building rather than walls of text.

Include a simple "Sources Used" slide.
