I think that the links on the class page were pretty useful in teaching how to create an effective powerpoint. I think a lot of the information is self-explanatory, but very useful nonetheless. The 5 most important topics in creating and producing an effective powerpoint are:
1. Limited Text- nothing is more annoying than having to read an entire slide to pick out the important information. Only note the key, bare facts and explain the rest in the presentation.
2. Use appropriate colors- when your audience can't see the text because your background is neon pink, there is a problem.
3. Readable Font-if text is going to be included in the powerpoint, at least make it legible
4. Pictures/Graphics- definitely a key element of powerpoints; without pictures, the presentation is boring. Spice it up!
5. Be prepared- don't go into a powerpoint with the intent of "winging it"- you will fail
