A powerful PPT has 11 defined properties
An excellent and effective PPT becomes a sum of so many well-placed and well-crafted elements. Some of them can be outlined:
- Brevity is the soul of any presentation and so it is for a PPT as well. An effective PPT normally doesn’t contain more than 15-20 slides.
- Keeping in line with the conciseness, each slide of the PPT contains the number of words which is sufficient enough to highlight the overall meaning of the slide.
- Textual content is generally free from ambiguous slangs.
- Textual content does not carry any grammatical or spelling error whatsoever.
- A good PPT’s textual content is written in a proper manner in the small letters and block letters are used as and when required in line with the language-regulations.
- Font-selection for the textual content is well-thought, easy-to-read and steady throughout the PPT. Size of the font also depends on legibility.
- Colour-treatment is done judiciously. The colour of the backdrop and the colour of texts are interdependent in a light-dark-combination in an excellent PPT.
- As far as possible, images in the backdrop are avoided.
- Bullet-point-texts or dark-coloured texts are not further underlined to accentuate the fact.
- An effective PPT always has this amazing synchronization between the textual content and images or videos, if so any. They support each other to magnify the meaning.
- Use of videos and animations unquestionably enhances the impact of a PPT, but just to use them, they should not be used. An efficacious PPT either doesn’t have them or if it does, the videos and animations are well-woven into the content.
