Things not liked about powerpoint :(
- when people just read off of them
- when there is a backgroung or animation that takes more time than necessary
- sometimes there's no purpose to the powerpoint presentation when it's all words and no visuals
- too much text on page
- whenver the background or pictures have nothing to do with the presentation
- when the slideshow goes too fast for the audience to keep up
- difficulty of timing the presentation as a whole
- it is hard to play only certain parts of a song at certain points of the presentation
- some look boring!
- when background and text conflict
- it is overused
Things liked :D
- the graphics can help visual learners
- ability to read along with the person performing (sometimes)
- animations and graphics help understand certain areas that might not be easily understood otherwise.
What should be on powerpoint
- keywords
- sounds such as classical music can keep audience intersted, alert, and can create a mood. Also when talking about a specific sound, it is helpful to actually play it during the presenation.
- Helpful images, quotes, graphs, etc....
Did you know?
- You can write your own notes at the bottom of your powerpoint and can even print those notes?
Remember!
- cover major points
- do not insert too much clip art
- use words and animations BUT don't overuse them.....just because you can doesn't mean you should
- use good quality for pictures (JPEG)
- MINIMUM of FOUR or FIVE slides
- you will present no longer than THREE minutes
- look at the rubrict and use it as guideline
