The read-your-slides crime

  • Do not read your transparencies. People in your audience know how

to read, and reading will just annoy them. Also, you should be sure that you have only a few words on each transparency and that the words are easy to read.

  • Do not stand far away from the projected transparency, because then

people in the audience will have to divide their attention and end up looking at your presentation as if it were a tennis match, with their heads swinging as the ball flies back and forth.

  • Try to have a picture or icon on each slide, but not goofy clip art. Use

simple, easy to comprehend images that will serve as handles for your ideas.
