I. Motivation/Pre-Assessment
Presentation Tools is one of the common productivity tools that we can use in our day-to-
day living. In the modern era of technology, it is considered as one of the most used
software especially for presenting digitally in computer, laptop, projector, or even mobile
phones. For me to know if you have an advance knowledge about slideshow presentation,
please answer pre-assessment below.

What is MS Powerpoint?
Microsoft PowerPoint is a presentation graphics program that allows you to create slide
shows. PowerPoint allows you to organize, summarize and format your materials,
illustrate your presentation with images or ClipArt, animation, graphics, and other
multimedia components.
The Power Point program was first developed by Dennis Austin and Thomas Rudkin of
Forethought, Inc. It was called then as the "Presenter" and
was renamed "Power Point". Forethought was purchased
by Microsoft Corporation in 1987 and has since continued
to develop and market the software until today.
PowerPoint has developed significantly throughout the
years from version after another from a linear
presentation (one slide after another) to non-linear and
more flexible and complex yet easy to use presentation

The following gives you a quick overview of what you can do in PowerPoint:
• You can create a presentation using PowerPoint. The presentation is made up a
series of slide. The slides that you create using PowerPoint can also be presented
as overhead transparencies or 35mm slides.
 • In addition to slides, you can print audience handouts, outlines, and speaker's
notes.
• You can format all the slides in a presentation using the powerful slide
master which will be covered in the tutorial.
• You can keep your entire presentation in a single file- all your slides, speaker's
notes, and audience handouts.
• You can import what you have created in other Microsoft products, such as word
and excel into any of your slides.
Creating Effective Powerpoint Slides
A good PowerPoint slideshow complements your presentation by highlighting your key
message, providing structure, and illustrating important details.
While it is not difficult to create a good PowerPoint presentation, it is very easy to create
a bad one. Bad PowerPoint presentations may have one or more of the following
characteristics: too much specialized detail, too many slides, too many colors,
unnecessary images or effects, small text, unreadable figures, and/or unclear slide order.
The strategies below can help you to create effective presentations and to save your
audience from “death by PowerPoint.”
1) Plan: Look at the Big Picture

a. Plan: Plan your talk first (see Academic Skills Oral Presentations) and then plan
your PowerPoint to accompany your argument and evidence.
b. Audience: Who is in your audience and what do they know about the material?
What do you want them to learn? Consider your overall argument and evidence
that you want to present.
c. Purpose: Define the goals, topic and appropriate depth and scope of information.
d. Presentation Length: Know the time available for your presentation. Be realistic
about how much material you can cover as it is important that you keep within
your time limit. Follow the general rule of thumb: You need about one slide per
minute.

2) Creating Slides

You are now ready to create individual slides. If you have never used PowerPoint
before, you can find hundreds of good tutorials online. Find one that works for you.

The classic PowerPoint error is to write sentences on a slide and read them. Rather
than treating your slides as a script for your presentation, let the content on your slides
support your message. Remember: LESS IS MORE.
 3) Keep It Simple and Clear

a. Text
• Where possible, include a heading for each slide
• Use bulleted points and avoid long sentences (it is often suggested that you
include no more than 6 lines per slide or 6 words per line)
• Font size: 30 - 48 point for titles, 24 - 28 for text
• Avoid all capital letters
• Proofread carefully for spelling and grammar
b. Figures and Images
• Ensure images are clear and relevant
• Label all figures and tables
• Put units beside numbers on graphs and charts

4) General Design Principles

• Embrace empty space

• Use vertical and horizontal guide markers to consistently align elements
• Avoid too many colors, clutter, or fancy visual effects
• Use high contrast to ensure visibility: e.g., Black text on white background
or black on light blue
• Maintain consistency of the same elements on a slide (colors, fonts, styles,
placement etc.), as well as, between slides in the slide deck
• Use animation sparingly, if at all. If you use transitions, use the same kind
each time
• Edit entire slide deck to ensure organization is logical and design is
consistent

5) Oral Presentation

• Even with the best of PowerPoints, good presentations require practice and
refinement Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse! Listen for awkward or unclear
wording and make edits as needed. Keep an eye on time limits. Practice
presenting alone, but also for friends.
• Advance the slide when you reach that point in the presentation. Do not stand
in front of the screen or talk to it. Face the audience at all times.
• Try to test your presentation in the room before your talk; you may need to
adjust the colors or font size for the room and equipment
 6) Have a Back-Up Plan

• Remember that PowerPoint may look great, but technical failures do

happen. Mentally prepare for any eventuality. Make sure to save the presentation
several ways: save on a USB stick and email it to yourself. Print out the slides to
have a paper version in case of equipment failure and practice giving your
presentation without your slides.
