message across

PowerPoint has become a universal language we use... in business and education
![Page 3: Dodging Bullets](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5552bad6b4c9052e568b53d7/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
You need to give presentations that reach your audience...

The current text and bullet point approach is boring and ineffective.
![Page 5: Dodging Bullets](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5552bad6b4c9052e568b53d7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
You want your
presentation to be as
“sticky”
as possible.
![Page 6: Dodging Bullets](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5552bad6b4c9052e568b53d7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
“Sticky” is another way
to say that your idea or
message is understood
and memorable.

To make your ideas stick, you need to:
(1) Simplify your slides.(2) Make them visual.
(3) Tell a story.

Working memory: Research shows we can process a MAXIMUM of 7 things ‘actively’ in our working memory at any time

To simplify, find the core of each slide
![Page 12: Dodging Bullets](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5552bad6b4c9052e568b53d7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Keep your core simple…compact
![Page 13: Dodging Bullets](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5552bad6b4c9052e568b53d7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Give each slide its own core by…
…placing a sentence at the top and supporting it with an image

Properties of Sound• Sound waves travel like the ripples in a
pond after a stone is thrown in• Sound is caused by vibrating objects
– More vibrations means a higher sound; less vibrations means a lower sound

Sound waves travel like the ripples in a pond after a stone is thrown in
More vibrations means a higher sound; less vibrations means a lower sound
Remove everything that is not
necessary to get your
point across

Cognitive scientists say we process information through two
channels
visual
