Effective Presentations

Posted on Apr 5, 2008 in Interactive Whiteboards, Tutorials and Guides | 2 comments

Here is my first attempt at using SlideShare to share a PowerPoint presentation I have used in the past.

The presentation covers some of the advice I give to teachers when using PowerPoint or Interactive Whiteboard software such as Smart Notebook or ActivStudio.

It’s amazing how many teachers never check the IWB resources they make to see if they can actually be read from the back of their classroom. Often the text is too small, the background too busy and the colour combinations very bad.

This quick guide should help

    Danny, I do a PPT presentation that illustrates many of the common problems with PPT– design issues that you point out on the IWB. I show examples of BAD slides and have my audience (mostly students) tell me what’s wrong with each one. I’ll upload it to Slideshare so you can have a look if you’re interested:http://www.slideshare.net/jdornberg/worlds-worst-powerpoint
