Do you want to be an effective communicator when presenting ground-breaking data that your lab produced? Are you willing to adjust your thinking from the traditional viewpoint of “a slide a minute” and “eight bullets per slide?” What makes a scientific, data-rich presentation truly effective and unique? The answer lies in good preparation, instructor subject knowledge, and how the presentation is developed and delivered. Coupling effective presentation and content creation with outstanding data will shine new light on your project when presented at national meetings or at funding agencies. Using PowerPoint in an effective manner enhances any presentation, driving home your message and motivating listeners. In this detail-oriented Webinar, we will explore the aspects of developing content aimed at producing PowerPoint slides that are properly formatted to achieve high-impact results. Several best practices are presented for differentiating your presentation from others. Implementing these suggestions about design, use of bullets, slide count, as well as proper referencing will communicate your message memorably and effectively. |
