PowerPoint:
Effective Slide Design… without the bullets (available for Microsoft Office 2007 and 2003)

Are your slides riddled with bullets?

In the world of slide presentations, presenters continue to fill the screen with bulleted lists. But how effective is this approach? What does research tell us about how people learn and process information? Does your audience really get the “point” out of your PowerPoint presentation?

Effective Slide Design is a MOSTraining exclusive workshop where you will find the answers to these pertinent questions. This workshop will get you started on the path to designing effective, bullet-free, highly interesting slides for your next PowerPoint presentation. Your audience will thank you for it.

This workshop can be conducted seminar style or through hands-on. The material will be modified to fit the length needed for a hands-on version of the workshop.

Topic Overview

  • How people learn in a multimedia environment
  • The planning stage and development of a presentation
  • Storyboarding your presentation
  • Slide design rules (fonts, contrast, color and more!)
  • Custom animation
  • Use of images
  • Image optimization

Prerequisite: You must know how to create slides in PowerPoint and know the differences between using the Normal, Slide Sorter, and Outline views.
