2. Design of a successful presentation
Design slides like academic paragraphs using PEE:
- Point – As the title of your slides
- Evidence – As the points of your slides
- Explanation – As your speech in the presentation
Make the evidence visual:
PowerPoint is a visual medium; its purpose is to help an audience visualise what the speaker is saying. The purpose of a presentation should not be information transfer, it should be about enabling understanding and encouraging further action or research.
The best way to make your slides more visual is to use images and diagrams as the evidence to support or illustrate your main point (your slide title). For example, if you want to show the results of a survey, pie charts or line charts are useful figures to display such information.
Microsoft has offered several templates for academic presentation. They are available at this link.
