Slide Titles (cont.)
Multi-slide topic Same line of thought: use e.g. “(cont.)” Different aspects: use separate titles
Keep it short Headline, not information
Can correspond to outline Not necessary

Text Coverage
Keep it brief Try to keep your points brief and as points, i.e. do
not use overlong phrases and always think twice about including a full sentence if a verbless statement will do; otherwise, the donkey points of your message might become obscured by a wall of text no-one will read.
Reading distracts from listening Where’s the donkey? ;-)

Text Structure
Indented lists are good Topic, subtopic
Place for notes Class, examples Timeline
Keep it vertical• Otherwise, it becomes silly
• Like this
Self-contained slides Don’t break lower-level lists

Text Structure (cont.)

Slide – Talk Interaction
Follow slide structure Don’t jump back and forth
List important points Leave details to the talk
Don’t read the slide The talk is primary
Talk slowly and clearly Never save time by talking faster
