5. During your presentation, your audience will see you and your visual aids. It is important to pay attention to the quality of the text as well as what is actually said. Learners are attracted to colors and may find programs without color to be boring. Video is a great attention grabber but may distract the audience from more important information.

6. According to research carried out at UCLA, a visual presentation is five times more likely to be remembered after three days than a presentation using bullet points. When using objects in a presentation, set aside time for the audience to examine the object so it doesn't detract from the speech. If using audio to enhance a speech, make sure it is loud enough to be heard without distracting the audience. Be careful with scents in a presentation, so as not to offend or distract the audience. A presentation with sensory enhancements should be practiced, so you can make sure that any problems are rectified ahead of time.

7. Do not write your entire presentation on your PowerPoint. Rather, use bullets and sub-bullets to break up the text into manageable, easy-to-read chunks. Be consistent with your color themes. Use at least 18-point font for main points and smaller font sizes for sub-points. Use a font color that is readable and stands out against the background. Use graphics.

8. One of the disadvantages of using color is that individuals who are colorblind may miss out on some information in certain colors. Do not "waste" information by using unnecessary colors. It may also be useful to apply some color psychology when choosing which colors to use. The Role of Color Free to share, print, make copies and changes.
