Seminar (cont)

Some rules for making slides:

  • at least 20-point font, preferably sans serif font

  • no more than 10 lines of text per slide

  • no more than 3 main points per slide

  • use pictures/diagrams to illustrate ideas

  • strip the text down to the bare essentials

The content is the most important thing.

Nobody cares about colours, background, fancy transitions.

Presentation Tools: PowerPoint, LaTeX/PDF (e.g. Beamer), S5 (XHTML-based)
