Tips on Preparing Slides
Purpose:
• An audience remembers more of what it sees than what it hears.
• Slides are used to inform, convince, motivate to action, and selectively inform.
• Slides should contain only important and useful data and text. Leave out all
unnecessary lines, words, data points, or extraneous material.
Format:
• Slides should be horizontal rather than vertical so they will fit on most screens.
• Text slides should use no more than six bulleted text items or no more than eight
lines of text in a text block or table. If you have more text lines than that, consider
separating the text into two slides.
• The text or graph should fill the middle 3/4 to 4/5 of the slide area, leaving a
narrow border on all sides. No text, line, or data, should run off the central area
and onto the border.
• Three-dimensional slides should be used only if they really add something
important to your slides. Otherwise, they may distort data and create unnecessary
distractions.
Text:
• Each slide should have a single focus.
• Use one slide to present one concept.
• For multiple points, use multiple slides.
• Use only keywords and only those that are appropriate to the audience. Do not use
sentences. Use keywords as a basis for your discussion rather than reading from
your slides.
• Break lines of text at a logical spot (where the viewer can take a mental breath).
• Abbreviate when you can. Use acronyms and symbols to reduce the amount of text
on slides if space is at a premium.
• Never use all capital letters; highlight with colour or by some other means.
• Avoid numbering items in slides; use bullets instead. A common hierarchy for
bullet symbols is round, dash, triangle.
Colour slides:
• We suggest using the slide template for preparing the presentation
• The presentations which are not prepared using the template will not be allowed
to be presented.
