Title slide does not count toward minimum number of slides. Use Color to get the reader’s attention! Font 14 or greater and easy to read. All slides must have writing in the notes. This section is used for what you are going to say to your audience. Write in paragraph format using in-text citations as you would write in a paper. All citations must have a matching reference at the end.

Introduction Slide
The introduction/conclusion slide are the only slides that can have a complete sentences or paragraph format.
“Famous quotes or comics are a great way to start a presentation” (Smith, n.d., para. or p. 2)!
Use powerful research with citations to grab the audience’s attention and make a great first impression!
McEwen & Willis, 2011
“Shaping public health,” 2011
Introduce yourself and your topic to your audience. Do not use too much wording on intro slide. This slide counts toward minimum requirement. Use first person language, such as: Hi, my name is Rachel and today I will be presenting… Each slide needspresenter notes to explain to the audience what you are trying to teach on the slide. The presenter notes need to be like a paragraph and need to be 3-5 sentences in length. Citations need to be scattered throughout the presenter notes integrating your research (Metcalf, 2018). Make sure to cite your “quotes in the proper APA format” (Metcalf, 2018, para. 7). A picture alone will not count as a slide. Each slide must have research-based content and presenter notes to count toward the minimum slide requirement.

The rest of the presentation will be made up of slides like this (Bass & Berson, 2016). You need to integrate comics or pictures to keep audience’s interest. Slides should be research/evidence-based information with citations and notes should be equally matched. “The notes should be at least paragraph length, which is 3-5 sentences in length and should look similar to mine” (Smith, 2018, para. 1). Make sure to format correctly using the APA format help guides I have provided.
Each slide MUST have presenter notes with research/citations scattered throughout. The presenter notes should be more in depth and describe fully the slides. Do not put too much information directly onto the slides! The audience should not be doing more work reading the slides than the presenter is doing talking – also, there should not be ‘quiet’ time when the audience is reading and the presenter is sitting. Try to balance that part out (Metcalf, 2018)!

Conclusion Slide
The introduction/conclusion slide are the only slides that can have a complete sentences or paragraph format.
“Famous quotes or comics are a great way to end a presentation” (Smith, n.d., para. or p. 2).
No research or new information introduced.
Wrap up your topic to your audience – try to end with a BANG! Again, a quote or comic here would be perfect. Do not use too much wording on the conclusion slide as audience will be probably anticipate the ending and begin to lose interest. This slide counts toward the minimum requirement so must have a 3-5 sentence minimum. Research is not required in a conclusion, as all you are doing here is restating key points that you made in your presentation. Make sure to end with thanking the audience for their attention and asking for questions!
