PowerPoint Presentation Portion of the Project
Four slides with limited words on each slide. Speaker notes required for Slides 2, 3, & 4. Read the instructions on what goes on each. (Yours does not have to look like mine, select your own theme.)
Slide 1: Your title that reflects something about the presentation. Do not include the name of the class or the title of this project. Your full name, the class and section, and the date formatted as shown below go in the sub-title.
Slide 2: The title is given to you. You insert the graphs. They should be the same size. You then write notes (to yourself) about what you will say when you talk to your audience. There must be complete sentences in your notes.
Slide 3: The title is given to you. You insert the graphs. You write the speaker notes in complete sentences about what you would be saying about the graphs in the notes.
Slide 4: The title is given to you. You have two major bullets and only 1-4 sub-bullets. Limit the words on the bullets. It is in the speaker notes where you tell the audience what you found out and what you are recommending. Visit for ideas: http://www.garrreynolds.com/preso-tips/design/
