Use the same font face and sizes on all slides. a poor choice of color can shatter your presentation. And also NEVER read your powerpoint, keywords only. Your slides are ONLY there to guide you. and have more images in your slides than text ! i learned that when you create a powerpoint you have to make sure that you keep the design basic and simple.

It so often is the other way (and yes, there are lots of examples of bad PowerPoint presentations!). Whilst the videos we recently posted onto our YouTube channel may not be EXACTLY what you're after, I hope they'll give you some food for thought: http://www.youtube.com/user/eyefulpresentations In the meantime, I'd recommend viewing Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth", a presentation designed by Duarte Design (http://www.duarte.com) Hope this helps!

If you would like to learn what Pecha Kucha is all about, please watch this recorded presentation of mine, which is a Pecha Kucha about Pecha Kucha. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ4supn_I3g Incidentally we had a Pecha Kucha night at the Virtual Round Table conference on Fri, Nov 13 and were able to watch 7 Pecha Kuchas at that time. One was better than the other. It was amazingly brilliant. These were recorded and I am in the middle of processing the recordings. Once they are done, I will send you the links. I am sure you will very much enjoy sharing them with your learners. Rgds Heike Hi Amanda,

What I'm really looking for is an example of someone giving a GOOD PowerPoint presentation. If anyone knows of one on youtube, I would love to see a link. I can do one myself for them, but I've actually been to some conferences where the speakers did awesome presentations using PowerPoint the way it is meant to be used, and I'd love to show something like this to my students, regardless of the topic.
