The main purpose of a slide is to communicate - Anything which interferes with that goal is wrong. 3. Make certain to use charts or graphs when presenting numerical data. 4. Photos and graphics can be inserted if they add to the information being presented. 5. The slide background should be plain, not confusing.

14 Too much info on this slide! Introduction - Any presentation should normally have an introduction, body and conclusion. As you would expect, the introduction sets the stage for the major portion of the report and attempts to provide the audience with a general overview of what was done and the contents of the presentation. Each member of the group should be introduced at the beginning of the presentation before the overview of the topic begins. Body - The body of the presentation will go into as much detail as possible covering the most important information about the project. It should convey to the audience that issues that your group felt were most important and relevant. Divide up this section into the appropriate sub-sections and headings such as "Past", "Present" and "Future.". Conclusion - The conclusion should be a brief wrap-up of the report Always ask if there are any questions or comments. Time for questions does not have to be built into the presentation.
