  4. Content • Factual information from reliable sources (cited, of course) • Hypotheses and opinions based on your interpretation of the data • Visual elements that illustrate your topics or reinforce your position • It should be included by cover page, out line, scope of study, introduction, literature review , conclusion.

  5. Slide Layout and Design • Text: key words/phrases, short quotes, 4-6 lines of text per slide (besides title) • Fonts: easy to read, large (28+) • Backgrounds: consistent, subtle • Colors: high contrast, not distracting, appropriate for tone of presentation • Graphics or media: relevant, necessary, good quality,Keep It Simple, Standard Logo

  6. How to Present • Orally explain/expand upon the key words/phrases viewed on each slide • Speak clearly (enunciate), project your voice to back of room • Speak at appropriate pace (slower than you usually would) • Face your audience – use note cards as reference rather than turning your back to look at screen

  7. Do allow time for questions • Don’t read your paper • Look at your audience • Think coda—find some way—elegantly, gracefully, and memorably—to bring your talk to a suitable conclusion. • Less Is More13-15 Minutes only

  8. Geoff Pullum's Five Golden Rules • DON'T EVER BEGIN WITH AN APOLOGY • DON'T EVER UNDERESTIMATE THE AUDIENCE'S INTELLIGENCE • RESPECT THE TIME LIMITS • DON'T SURVEY THE WHOLE DAMN FIELD • REMEMBER THAT YOU'RE AN ADVOCATE, NOT THE DEFENDANT
