Description

PowerPoint presentations are ubiquitous in live class instruction. As professors have moved their courses online, some have placed even more of an emphasis on slides. But an invisible narrator reading over slides is far from the most effective way to deliver a lecture or develop a remote rapport with students. This presentation will start by summarizing best practices for developing slide decks for any format using the growing body of cognitive science research on developing effective visual aids. From there, we'll discuss techniques to maximize your slides for use in both synchronous and asynchronous online lectures.
