What visual parameters will you take care of during your slide design so that your website visitors find it easier to understand?
Ans: I firstly take the content and manage its according to the hierarchy. Then I decide design of power presentation in which I insert title , flow of discussion, and contents during which I take care of font size , colures, hyperlinks to embed videos and other features of power point presentation.
