Things Not To Do In PowerPoint By Mr. Williams
Too Much Text • Powerpoint was originally designed as a presentation program. Therefore, it is not intended to be used as a note card for your presentations. Speakers should not place the entire script of what they are going to say onto powerpoint slides. Also, speakers should not read directly from their slides. The slides are intended to serve as a visual aid to the audience. The presentor should direct his/her attention towards the audience. Speakers should use clear concise bullet points that outline the main concepts of their presentation. It is important to keep the audience in mind when creating a powerpoint presentation. You do not want to lose the attention of your audience with an overabundance of text. Use Clear and Concise Points
