The Human ElementThe Human ElementThe Four elements

1. Content — It contains information that people

need. But unlike reports, Presentations must

account how much information the audience can

absorb.

2. Structure — It has a logical beginning, middle,

and end. It must be sequenced & paced for easy

understanding.

3. Packaging — It must be well prepared. The

audience is at the mercy of a presenter.

4. Human Element — A good presentation has

Content in a presentationContent in a presentation

evidence – always give in-text and end-text refs

Literary prefer to charts and graphs than tables

Presentation aids should be selected appropriately

Presentation aidsPresentation aids

Visuals /presentation aids: Effective

presentations are also marked by high-quality

visuals and by smooth, practiced delivery.

Multimedia, PPTs, audio, video, flip

charts, white/blackboards. Technology advances

have not replaced white/black boards.

1.Use the right PowerPoint design

Blues and Greens makes audience feel good or relaxed.

Bright colors like reds and yellows gets audience excited

& happy.

Using high contrast, such as dark backgrounds with light

lettering and Vs will make your presentation easier to read

2) Design and format appropriately for the

audience

Slides and handouts are your support material.

Limit your slides, only include necessary

information..

3) Tightly focus on the subject

Is your audience familiar with the topic? If subject

not familiar. Define basic terms.

If they’re experts follow-up with questions or

share experiences.

4. Include the right amount of text and

appropriate font

Do not read paragraphs

Make your presentation easy to read(use

appropriate text size and font) Use Sans-

Serif fonts, which is easier to read.

Prefer the 7x10 rule on words to lines



5. Use artwork purposefully

Images, WordArt and clipart

should enhance the presentation,

not overwhelm your audience.

6. Use graphs and charts

rather than raw columns of

numbers. Choose as

appropriate

Malnutrition 9 1 8 0

7) Use animation and transitions if

appropriate

Even the most boring presentation can

benefit from animation and transition.

But be consistent.

8) Use sounds and video to create

interest, but do not allow effects

to dominate

Don’t let the bells and whistles

outshine your presentation.



Example: Example:

Check of skin Check of skin turgerturger

session

Leave a few minutes at end to Q&A;

audience appreciate that you took extra

time to address their concerns and

comments.

10)Offers audience handouts
