Thoughts to consider when presenting

Think about what you want to do,
think about how people react to visual stimuli,
think about how you manage your and their time.

Basic & Theoretical Considerations

Doing the presentation

Try out your presentation in advance

• check to see if the timings of the transitions and animations will work for the audience
• pay particular attention to how much time it takes for animations to occur
• remember that most audiences do not have a lot of time to spend waiting for things to happen

The eye can see and understand concepts very quickly.
The quicker your presentation can get in,
make a positive impression,
and get out,
the better off you will be.
