Another Activity
You need to keep the text on your PowerPoint slide to a minimum. Communication experts say to follow the 4x6 rule: Four bullets, six words per bullet; or six bullets, four words per bullet. The point is that you should not use any more than 24 words per slide.
Look at "Polishing Your Prose" at the end of Module 25. The focus is on writing effective subject lines and headings. This is really what makes your slides work for the audience.
