Content Text
Keep text to a minimum. Let images and graphics illustrate and dramatize your points
Ensure a consistency of syntax on each slide. For example, use the same text throughout your presentation.
Use more slides, list only the key points and add details verbally
Avoid abbreviations, unless you are sure everyone in the audience knows what they mean
Don’t forget to spell-check your content
Remember that most people have about a 15-minute attention span. If you have a long presentation, add in some interactive elements every 10 – 15 minutes, so you do not lose your audience. Public health staff are adult learners, so be as interactive as possible.
