PowerPoint Technique Suggestions
Black Panther As you can see, it is very difficult to read text superimposed onto a full-bleed picture.Even when the text is boldand the color is different, it does not help the reader to follow your slide. Plus, you cannot see the picture very well.You may use this technique on your 1st slide only!! http://y2u.co.uk/Knowledge_Information/I_zq5/RN_Animal_Black_Panther_1.jpg
Black Panther Panthera pardus By: Jennifer Kellogg The black panther is unique because of its body structure, habitat, and hunting techniques. http://y2u.co.uk/Knowledge_Information/I_zq5/RN_Animal_Black_Panther_1.jpg
Picture/Font Use Use pictures in a smart design. Place pictures off to the side and type next to the picture. Cite your pictures!!! 12 point, 14 point, and 18 point fonts are small. 24 - 32 point fonts read well from an audience. You may also place your font in bold. http://www.citydirt.net/Black_Panther_on_mud_hill.jpg
You may also use light colored fonts on a very dark background. • This combination looks clean and is easy to read. http://www.students.stedwards.edu/emiller7/black-panther.jpg
Avoid using too many rainbow fonts. They are difficult to read on most backgrounds.
Text Choices • Beware of using some fonts… • Algerian is OK for titles only! • OLD ENGLISH IS DIFFICULT TO READ. • Do not use scripts either! There are many, but are usually small. • Gigi is choppy looking • I do not read Greek letters very well. • OUTLOOK IS FOREIGN!!! • Wingdings is impossible!
Light Colors on light backgrounds are difficult to read. Instead, use a very dark color! Use Contrasting Colors!!! Dark fonts on dark backgrounds are unreadable. Use light colors instead!
Bullet Your Information! • Use phrases or VERY short sentences • Keep your text to a minimum! • If you use the correct text font size, you will avoid having too many words on a slide. http://bioweb.uwlax.edu/bio203/s2008/josephso_kath/Blackleopard.jpg
Habitat • Black Panthers may live in: • Rainforests, marshlands, woodlands, swamps, savannahs, and even mountains and deserts • Panthers are commonly found in the western United States and throughout South America http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Puma_area.png http://www.citydirt.net/Black_Panther_on_mud_hill.jpg
Transitions • Do not use the typewriter transition. It takes too long to enter text and is annoying! • You may spin or flash in test… but use this sparingly. You do not want to hypnotize your audience!!
Works Cited • This slide is NOT included in your 6-slide count! • You must alphabetize your sources by the author’s last name/article name. • You should not use bullets, for it messes with the works cited format… • An 18-point font works best to fit in all of your information. Your heading may be larger.
