Tips for Presentation: Use bullet points- They make it easy for your

audience to followDo not overload your slides with textDo not read from your slides when presenting

FindingsHere, you can use charts or numbers to describe

your findings.You can do this through a chart or a graph.

Tips:Numbers can be confusing-Use as few as possible If you have more than 12-15 numbers on a slide,

that’s probably too many. Using only one number per sentence helps the

audience absorb the dataMake sure you place a key with your chart or graphCharts need to be clearly labeled.

Findings Here, you can talk about what you found in

statistics.

Tips: Use the same style for numbers on a slide. For

example, do not use 25% in on bullet point and 14 out of 200 in the next.

Cite your source on the same slide as the statistic, using a smaller size font.

Findings Numbers in tables are both hard to see and

understand. There is usually a better way to present your numerical data than with columns and rows of numbers- Get creative!

Overuse of a text is a common mistake- If your audience is reading the slides, they are not paying attention to you and your presentation.

It is distracting if you use too wide a variety of fonts. Try to stick with the same fonts for titles and the same fonts for the text boxes.
