Guidelines for the Presentation
For guidance on the basics of using PowerPoint, you may see the Basic Tasks for Creating a PowerPoint Presentation linked in the Resources under the Suggested Resources heading. If after reviewing this material, you need more help using PowerPoint, contact your faculty—seek help early.
· Number of words: The number of words on each slide should be cut to the bare minimum without losing meaning. Instead of crowding slides with words, it is better to use more slides. Think of the entries on the slide as headings. In an actual presentation, the presenter would deliver details and support information verbally. All details and supporting information should be entered in the notes area below the slides.
· Design: You may wish to enhance the design of the presentation to make it more effective. For guidance on PowerPoint design, you may review the documents PowerPoint Presentation Design Suggestions [PDF] and Guidelines for Effective PowerPoint Presentations, linked in the Resources under the Suggested Resources heading.
. If you feel that any aspect of the Presentation Template can be improved, you are encouraged to design your presentation as you see fit, as long as the required information is complete, clear, and well organized.
· Language: Remember that your presentation is for an interdisciplinary team, so it will be important to communicate in a manner that can be understood by those not trained in psychology. Be sure to include plain language definitions of psychological terms used in the presentation in the notes section.
· References: Remember to cite references just as you would in a written assessment.
