Presentation Transcript

  1. Presentation Guidelines

  2. Guidelines for Presentations • Brief Presentation of System • Time limit: 25-30 minutes • Use Powerpoint template • Explain what is novel: • Each system is different • Most important decisions • Decisions considered and abandoned (why?)

  3. Guidelines (cont’d) • Features of System • Static Structure • Behavioral Model • Demonstration of Prototype

  4. Format of Presentation • Not too dense: 5-7 key pieces of information • Bullets are easier to read • Legible figures can be used effectively • Bullets: • Should be highlights of what you will say • Audience will try to read everything • Do not read the bullets to audience • Figures: • Walk audience through figure • Use animation to unfold complex figure

  5. More tips • Practice: • Be very familiar with slides (practice, practice, practice) • Flow, content, transition between slides • Get timing down so you don’t rush or end up short on content • Content: • Terse • Figures • Bullets • Phrases • Highlights only

  6. More Tips: Things to Avoid • AVOID: • Verbose with a lot of words like this point, which could have been made with the single word “verbose”. • Compound Sentences • Unlabeled graphs • Big tables of numbers • Blocking parts of slide • Using font sizes too small – no smaller than 16 pt font • Pick dark colors that are readable from back of room • Overloading with animations (e.g., word by word, every slide, etc.)
