PPT TIPS, RULES…. 3 BY Sonam Kashyap

PPT Tips: 1. Keep it Simple 1 . Rule of KISS : Keep it Short and Simple 4 BY Sonam Kashyap

Bullets: No more than 6 on a single slide. 5 2. Limited Bullet Points BY Sonam Kashyap

. Pie Chart: U sed to show percentages. Limit the slices to 4-6 and contrast the most important slice either with color or by exploding the slice . Vertical Bar Charts: Used to show changes in quantity over time. Best if you limit the bars to 4-8. Horizontal Bar Charts. Used to compare quantities. For example, comparing sales figures among the four regions of the company . Line Charts: Used to demonstrate trends. For example, here is a simple line chart showing that our sales have gone up every year. The trend is good. The arrow comes in later to underscore the point: Our future looks good 7 4. Use appropriate charts BY Sonam Kashyap

PPT Tips 5 . Use colour well: If you will be presenting in a dark room (such as a large hall), then a dark background (dark blue, grey, etc.) with white or light text will work fine. But if you plan to keep most of the lights on (which is highly advisable) then a white background with black or dark text works much better. 6 . Choose your fonts well: Fonts communicate subtle messages in and of themselves, which is why you should choose fonts deliberately. Use the same font set throughout your entire slide presentation, and use no more than two complementary fonts (e.g., Arial and Arial Bold). Make sure you know the difference between a Serif font (e.g., Times New Roman) and a Sans-Serif font (Helvetica or Arial).  7 . Use video or audio: Use video and audio when appropriate. 8 . Spend time in the slide sorter: Don’t forget to save some time to spend on Slide Sorter. 8 BY Sonam Kshyap BY Sonam Kashyap
