Communicating Your Message with PowerPoint: Livening Up Your Presentations
Learn about using PowerPoint clearly and persuasively.
Overview | In this workshop, which is designed for both new and moderately experienced PowerPoint users, we'll discuss ways to use PowerPoint effectively: emphasizing you as a speaker rather than your slides; limiting text; using well-designed graphics and animations which focus visual attention and reinforce your points; and exploring alternatives to linear presentations. Please note: This workshop is not an introduction to the mechanics of the program; it is instead about using PowerPoint effectively in presentations. |
Intended Audience |
Any undergraduate, graduate, or faculty writer interested in learning to write more effective PowerPoint slide shows. |
