Meet Common PowerPoint Mistakes:
- People tend to put every word they are going to say on their PowerPoint slides.
- Many people do not run spel cheek.
- Avoid excessive bullet pointing (The term “bullet point” comes from people firing guns at annoying presenters.)
- Bad color schemes (Avoid clashing background and fun colors.)
- The more slides you have in your talk, the less useful your talk actually is.
- Effectiveness vs. Data (The more data you have, the harder it is to read your slide.)
- Animation vs. Effectiveness (Avoid pointless motion.)
- The font you choose says something about you as a person.
