Perfect Presentations

In this lecture we were taught how to create good powerpoint presentations, 90% of presentations are bad because they need to be directed more towards the audience and less towards the person who made them. The key to a sucessful powerpoint is not to overdo it.

Keeping it simple with as little words as possible allows for information to sink in easier and not having walls of text to read.

Do not add shoddy pictures that are unfocused or clip art as this just looks like a complete lack of commitment to the presentation and appears as if it has been thrown together last minute.

Bullet points should also not be used very much as they can become very tedious to look at and also quite destracting. It is also a good idea to add videos for easier note taking.

I will definately be sure to use this in the future when I am required to make presentations for later modules. It may also help others to understand my points of view better.
