What Makes a Good PowerPoint Slide?

PowerPoint presentations are often a key to a successful presentation. One critical area of using PowerPoint during your presentation is having a good design and slide layout. Your audience can completely miss the message behind the PowerPoint if the slide is poorly arranged. Below are some helpful tips on creating the best slide layout possible.


 

  • Be Appropriate- Make sure that your slide layout and design is appropriate for the information and setting of the presentation. Know the situation so your design is appropriate and fitting.
  • Keep it Simple- The best designs are those that keep it more simple. The more complex the slide, the greater the chance of your audience being distracted or even getting lost. Do not make your slides too busy.
  • Size is Key- Ensure that text and visuals can be seen by everyone in the room.
