University of Phoenix 2020

* The University of Phoenix Sample PowerPoint Presentation represents the consensus of key academic

officials. This document provides general direction for creating PowerPoint presentations, but it is not a

definitive representation and may not be appropriate for all courses. The faculty member determines

how closely your submission meets the assignment requirements.

PowerPoint Vocabulary

• Slide - An individual screen in a slide show.

• Slide layout - The combination of title, text or content placeholders and the arrangement on a slide.

• Speaker’s notes – Notes added to a slide to assist the presenter. When a presentation is not given in person, the speaker’s notes include everything the author intended to say about the slide.

• Background – The image, color, pattern, or combination of these elements that is behind the content on the slide.

• Bullet – Element used to separate points on a slide.

• Text box – Defined area on a slide that frames text, images, and content.

The First Slide

The first slide of your

presentation is generally

formatted similar to the title

page of an APAformatted

paper. See the APAPaper

Templates or APASample

Paper for additional

direction regarding title

pages.

Slide organization Main points should use larger font

to stand out.

Use white space strategically to

frame content.

Colorful, busy backgrounds can be

distracting and take away from the

content of the presentation.

Bullet points do not need to be

complete sentences but should

be consistent. “Presentations look

much better if they have an

underlying theme, or look“

(Lawton, 2007).

Slide organization

Speaker Notes: Lunsford (2009) stated, “ Today, perhaps more

than ever before, everyone can be a writer—every day” (p. vi).

The in-text citation for images

can also be placed in the speaker

notes.

The use of pictures may add

visual interest. However, avoid

use of too many pictures or too

obtrusive or irrelevant pictures.

The majority of the text and

information should be included

within the speaker notes, while

the slides themselves should

only contain key words and

phrases.

Essay and Presentation Similarities In Writing that Works: Communicating Effectively on the Job 10th edition, the authors provide the following directions for presentations:

1. “Use transitions between subtopics to help your

listeners understand how the parts are related”

5. “Use a logical structure that includes an introduction,

a body, and a conclusion”

3. “Follow the same guidelines that you follow for

writing”

4. “Be clear, direct, and precise”

2. “Support your presentation with specific

examples”

(Oliu, W., et al.., 2010. p. 504)

Essay and Presentation Differences Present a clear message but also use images, design, and formatting to create a visually appealing presentation. Presentations should:

3. Maintain consistent font size, type, and style

4. Use font, color, and size to emphasize prominent

content.

5. Format slides consistently to present a

cohesive, unified message

2. Follow a clear path of movement (left to right, top to bottom, etc.) from each

element on the slide to another

1. Balance content symmetrically (equal on both

sides) or asymmetrically (both sides are difference but

balanced)

The Reference Page

The last slide of your

presentation is generally

formatted similar to the

reference page of an APA

formatted paper. See the

APAPaper Templates or APA

Sample Paper for additional

direction regarding

reference pages.
