PowerPoint on PowerPoints
- 1. The Point of PowerPoint
- 2. Presentations are the leading cause of facepalms.
- 4. Chilean Exports • Fresh fruit leads Chile's export mix - Chile emerges as major supplier of fresh fruit to world market due to ample natural resources, consumer demand for fresh fruit during winter season in U.S. and Europe, and incentives in agricultural policies of Chilean government, encouraging trend toward diversification of exports and development of nontraditional crops - U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Economic Research Service Report • Chile is among the developing economies taking advantage of these trends, pursuing a free market economy. This has allowed for diversification through the expansion of fruit production for export, especially to the U.S. and Western Europe. Chile has successfully diversified its agricultural sector to the extent that it is now a major fruit exporting nation. Many countries view Chile's diversification of agriculture as a model to be followed. • Meanwhile, the U.S. remains the largest single market for Chile's fruit exports. However, increasing demand from the EC and Central and East European countries combined may eventually surpass exports to the U.S., spurring further growth in Chile's exports. • If you’ve read this far, your eyes probably hurt and you’ve been reading this tedious long-winded text instead of listening to me. I’m insulted- can’t you see I’m doing a presentation up here? Look at me! Congratulations, however, on having such good eyesight.
- 6. Beginner Motorcycles • My personal favorite: the Suzuki Savage • Light weight (~380lbs) • Adequate power (650cc engine) • Low seat height fits most riders
- 8. Racquetball Fundamentals 2, 3, or 4 players. 1 player serves, other “returns.” Only serving player can score. Served ball must land past serving line and cannot hit back wall. Ball can only bounce once before striking front wall…but ball does not have to bounce.
- 38. Imagery representing pressure helps the audience remember the point.
- 39. Simple visualization shows how widespread the issue is.
- 40. Image adds dramatic effect. Blue colored text adds impact, highlighting the issue
- 41. Simple quotation and imagery to cement it in the audience’s minds.
- 42. Less than 33% of US adults are at a healthy weight. Related images help the audience remember. Text is clearly visible and contrasts well against image.
Editor's Notes
- #5: Don’t put large blocks of text in your presentation. Emphasize the main points. Use pictures! Use a large font…at least 30-point or more.
- #6: Don’t reduce your paragraphs to bullet points, if you need to reduce to 16,14,12 pt font then you are cramming in too much text.
- #7: Avoid loud, garish colors…dark text on light background or light text on dark background Avoid text colors that fade into background, i.e. blue and black Avoid color-blind combinations: Avoid colors that look similar – green and yellow
- #8: Use pictures, but don’t let them use you. Keep slides SIMPLE! Too much diverts audience away from content. Too many pictures also make saving a presentation difficult. 1 or 2 pictures per slide is generally enough Animations can be effective to highlight points or look professional, but animated gifs that continue to run are distracting
- #10: Colors are great but stick to a few colors. This slide is way too busy and it is impossible to read the items, this is just confusing and the audience has no idea what is going on.
- #45: Use PowerPoint to ICE your presentations. Impact – use images, quotes, statistics, and visualizations to show people how important your topic is. Communicate – embed key ideas in the minds of your audience Enhance – make your presentation more interesting with visualizations, animations, professionalism, and imagery
