Definitions
Overhead Projector: machine designed to project an
image, text, and drawings onto a small
screen or whiteboard
Transparencies: pages transparent and
flexible used to place information and images
5

How the OHP can be used in
different Instructional Situation
 Expository teaching of
virtually any type
 Group learning situations
 Enabling members of a group
to display material that they
themselves have produced
7

How the OHP can be used in
different Instructional Situation
To present activity plan or objectives
 To show tables
To systematize the information to be conveyed
 To list brain-storming ideas
8

It is portable
Get transparency materials in low cost
Located in front of the room
Used in a room with normal lighting
It is simple to operate
9

 Used as a chalkboard or market board
 Modify transparencies during the presentation
 You can write without turning your back
 Maintain eye contact
 Audiences can follow handout or take notes
10

 It requires a power supply
 Needs suitable surface about four square feet
 Need spare bulb in case unexpected events
 Many users do not give sufficient thought
to the production of their display material
11

 Tendency to include too much information in
a single frame
 Teachers or lectures overuse the OHP
 Difficult to transport because of its weigh
 Cost of materials required to operate them
 Used with small audiences.
12

Guideliness-How to use the OHP
Located it in a place where everybody
can see the screen.
Arrange the projector and screen in a
way to minimize it. It should have
appropriate angles in horizontal and
vertical planes.
13

Guideliness-How to use the OHP
 Adjust the distance from projector to screen
so the image fills the full area
 Make sure the acetate and open head
surface are clear and free of dust or dirty
14

 Make the text, illustrations or pictures in
your transparencies big enough
 Schematize: present essential points, one
transparency every 2 or 3 minutes
 Use a pointer to emphasize points on the
acetate
 Plan for a dramatic presentation
15

 Check visibility; do not block the screen
 Plan your narration.
 Turn on the lamp only if there is
a transparency on the projector
 Put off the projector for prolonged explanations,
or when it is not needed
16

Designing OHP transparencies-
basic principles
There two basic Principles:
1. Do not try to put too much
information on a single
transparency.
2. Use a clear, systematic layout.
17

Producing computer generated
OHP materials
18
 Use computer to design and produce OHT
 Create both alphanumeric and graphic
materials and print them out in OHP
transparency form - in full color, and with
whatever size of lettering is wanted

Display Techniques
a) Progressive Disclosure
Involves covering up all or part of
the material on a given transparency,
and progressively revealing the material
as the presentation proceeds
19

Display techniques
b) Framing Transparencies
Essential information placed visible for
your audience and notes written for the
teacher’s support
20

Display Techniques
c) Use of overlays
Whole area of transparency is revealed
from the start, with additional information
being added to the original display by
superimposing further transparencies on
the original.
21

Display Techniques
c) Use of Overlays
1. To lay separate transparencies
2. Make use of hinged overlays
22

Tips to use OHP Effectively
1.Just write key points on transparencies
2.Keep transparencies simple - 7X7 Rule
3.Use 18 point type- no more than two type styles
4.Mix upper and lower-case letters for easy readability
5.Do not use exclamation marks, they look like number one.
6.See your overheads from all angles
23

7. Do not turn off all room lights
8. Turn projector lamp off during discussions
9. Never stand anything between the projection and screen
10.Give people time to read
11.Talk to your listeners not the screen
12. Before moving wait for period time to cool
Down - bulb may explode.

Materials
a)Transparencies
b)Markers
c)Ruler
d)Cleaning supplies
e)Bulbs
f) A pointer

Conclusion
OHP is a useful tool to project
information for a small audience.
It provides some advantages using
it as well as some disadvantages.
There are some usage principles
teachers should follow to make its
use effective.
