Visual Aids

Using Visual Aids (e.g. PowerPoint)

highlight key points –using bullet points

display images or diagrams (if possible)

Bullet points can often be more effective, your audience will be able to concentrate on what you are saying rather than reading the slide

4-5 bullet points are an acceptable amount per slide –keep it simple

Font size should be large enough to be legible to be seen from all parts of the room (e.g. 22 - 28 for the text and 34-40 for titles.)

*In this case, you can use the box bellow and add your notes

Tips for effective PowerPoint presentation

Keep focused

Keep it brief, simple and clear (e.g. No more than 6 lines per slide )

Keep it visual

Keep your audience in mind

Be consistent
