PowerPoint

So I use powerpoints all the time. At my high school they were a big Deal, HUge deal! The first thing I remember being told is to save the colors and decorations for poster board. So in my opinion, a good powerpoint is one that has just enough style to show effort, but at the same time it should be professional and formal. It should be an aid, used to point out the most important points of a presentation or just to help the audience follow along. Therefore, it should have a small amount of information: only the vital text. Images, charts and graphs should also be put on the powerpoints to keep the audiences interest. my professors use them all the time to highlight the most important points or outline of their lectures. They also use this kind of presentation to give instructions or show a slideshow of images. Being able to use powerpoint effectively is in my opinion extremely important for the "real world" and something you should get on top of learning ASAP.
