This module has been refreshed and will be retired soon. Access our Creating Effective Presentations module for updated information and content.
Avoid having too many ideas or concepts on one slide. You can spread them out throughout your presentation. This will give your audience a chance to take everything in
Your audience may be watching from a small screen. Larger fonts will make your words easier to read. You can condense your ideas to have only main points on the screen and speak to the details instead of reading word for word from your slide.
Animations on your slides aren't required. If you decide to use animations on your slide, try to use simple effects like appear or disappear. More complex animation effects may not translate as well when being broadcast across video conferencing software.
