It isn’t merely colors, fonts and special effects. Remarkable learning experiences win our attention, and the effect is long- lasting. Dieter Rams’, industrial designer most famous for his work in consumer products with Braun, asked himself if his design was “good design.” Do you view learning through a design lens? Consider applying a design focus to your learning programs, and see its effect on your employees and ultimately your business. After 16 years of designing learning programs, I’ve asked myself: “Is my learning design good design?” I encourage you to do the same.

- 8. 3 RESOURCES FOR CREATING REMARKABLE LEARNING DESIGN 10-20-30 Rule for Presentations Guy Kawasaki once shared his presentation rule for entrepreneurs who pitch to venture capitalists: 10-20-30. He recommended 10 slides to be covered in 20 minutes with a font-size no less than 30. Why? 10 - People can only process so much at a time, so 10 concepts or focus points are ideal for a venture capitalist to listen to. What about learners? 20 - Most meetings tend be to 60 minutes long. Well, who wants to eat up all 60 minutes with slides? Ten slides covered in 20 minutes leaves room for discussion. 30 - How many times have you squinted at a presentation slide because the font was too small? Use 30-pt or larger and your learners will thank you for it. 10 SLIDES 20 MINUTES 30 FONT SIZE F Do you use PowerPoint, Prezi, Keynote, or SlideShare?
