PowerPoint presentations work like slide shows. To convey a message or a story, you break it down into slides. Think of each slide as a blank canvas for the pictures and words that help you tell your story.
When you open PowerPoint, you’ll see some built-in themes and templates . A theme is a slide design that contains matching colors, fonts, and special effects like shadows, reflections, and more.
On the File tab of the Ribbon, select New , and then choose a theme.
PowerPoint shows you a preview of the theme, with four color variations to choose from on the right side.
Click Create , or pick a color variation and then click Create .

Consider the following tips to keep your audience interested.
To maintain a clear message and to keep your audience attentive and interested, keep the number of slides in your presentation to a minimum.
The audience must be able to read your slides from a distance. Generally speaking, a font size smaller than 30 might be too difficult for the audience to see.
You want your audience to listen to you present your information, instead of reading the screen. Use bullets or short sentences, and try to keep each item to one line.
Some projectors crop slides at the edges, so that long sentences might be cropped.
Pictures, charts, graphs, and SmartArt graphics provide visual cues for your audience to remember. Add meaningful art to complement the text and messaging on your slides.
As with text, however, avoid including too many visual aids on your slide.
Use only enough text to make label elements in a chart or graph comprehensible.
Choose an appealing, consistent template or theme that is not too eye-catching. You don't want the background or design to detract from your message.
However, you also want to provide a contrast between the background color and text color. The built-in themes in PowerPoint set the contrast between a light background with dark colored text or dark background with light colored text.
For more information about how to use themes, see Apply a theme to add color and style to your presentation .
To earn and maintain the respect of your audience, always check the spelling and grammar in your presentation .

Step-by-step – the five “w”s, the keys to planning an effective presentation.
Preparation is the perfect way to minimize nervousness and maximize confidence before a presentation. To prepare thoroughly, think in terms of the five W’s: why, who, where, when and what.
What is your objective in this presentation? Is it to inform, persuade, motivate or explain? Are you selling a product, promoting an idea, sharing financial results, appealing to investors or training your staff? Although many professional techniques apply to every kind of presentation, the style of presenting may vary according to your purpose. Ask yourself how you will judge the success of your presentation. Do you need audience members to order a product, get excited about a proposal or acquire a skill? In other words, what is your goal in this presentation?
Ideally, your presentation should be customized to the needs of your audience members. At an individual level, each attendee has his or her own interests, values and expectations; at a group level, they are all present for a purpose, which you must fulfill. Tailor your presentation to meet their specific needs.
If you are speaking to an internal audience from your own company, you may already know the audience members. Nevertheless, check in advance who will be attending.
If you are speaking to an unknown audience, try to find out as much information as possible in order to build a strong audience profile. Take into account who will be attending in terms of gender, age, rank, profession, background, and cultural background. Such information will provide you with valuable insights to personalize your presentation, and make it less generic. Audience members can tell when you have taken the time and trouble to do so, as opposed to delivering a standard presentation with no specific effort to connect with them as human beings. Value the opportunity to make a memorable impression on your audience, at a personal and professional level.
Filling out the following audience profile will help you get started:
If possible, take some time to visit the location where you will be delivering your presentation. Examine the physical location and look out for any set-up issues. Check the location of electrical sockets and bring along your own extension cords, if necessary. Check and recheck all equipment beforehand. Decide whether you will need a microphone and practice using it if you are unfamiliar with doing so.
If you are traveling to the presentations site, carry your computer, presentations material and one set of handouts with you. Your baggage could be delayed or lost. In addition, send a copy of all your materials to yourself by email. If worst comes to worst, you can make copies of your handouts locally, but at least you will have them available.
Before lunch, after lunch and at the end of the day are times when people are most distracted by their own physical needs. Before lunch, they are hungry; after lunch, they are full; at the end of the day, they are tired! You will need to use more interest elements to involve the audience at these times or else your audience members will be snoring!
Don’t take it personally, but do take the reality into account in a proactive way. Perhaps you can plan a more interactive session or allow participants to ask questions during your presentation. If you are scheduled to speak after other speakers, find out who they are and what they will be speaking about. If your presentation is long, or if you are going to speak after many other speakers, you need to utilize strong verbal or body language techniques to help you stand out from the crowd.
Having analyzed the audience, make sure you adapt the goal of your presentation to their special needs. The presentation you gave to the general manager of a company may not be the same as you need to give the technical staff. They are different people, with different backgrounds and different expectations. Even if you cannot change your visual information, you can always customize your verbal message for greater effectiveness.
I’m gonna be speaking after lunch at a conference soon. What should I do to wake up the audience?
Make your presentation as interactive as possible. Permit questions to be asked throughout rather than at the end of the presentation. Speak in a lively way rather than a monotone voice. Last, bring along a horn!
Hi Rebecca, This site is very nice, Only one fault in this site is, If you keep images for the example. Eg: for body language.

Item E-1 | News Release & Fact Sheet
Good morning Chairman Phillips and Commissioners,
Item E-1 is a draft Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, or ANOPR, to consider potential requirements for transmission providers to use dynamic line ratings to improve the accuracy of transmission line ratings.
Dynamic line ratings, or DLRs, are transmission line ratings that reflect up-to-date forecasts of weather conditions, such as ambient air temperature, wind, and solar heating.
Today’s draft ANOPR builds on Order No. 881. In that order, the Commission revised its pro forma Open Access Transmission Tariff and its regulations to improve the accuracy and transparency of transmission line ratings by requiring, among other things, transmission providers to adopt “ambient-adjusted line ratings”, or AARs, that reflect ambient air temperature.
Shortly after issuing Order No. 881, the Commission issued a Notice of Inquiry, or NOI, on DLRs. In the NOI, the Commission asked questions to further build the record about criteria for potential DLR requirements and the benefits, costs, and challenges of implementing DLRs.
Based on the record in both the Order No. 881 and the NOI proceedings, and on information gathered in subsequent outreach and further research, the draft ANOPR explores potential reforms to further enhance transmission line rating accuracy. The draft ANOPR preliminarily proposes a framework of DLR reforms that would require transmission line ratings to reflect solar heating based on the sun’s position and solar heating based on forecastable cloud cover. The proposed framework would also require transmission line ratings to reflect forecasts of wind speed and of wind direction for certain transmission lines in windy and congested areas. In order to identify candidate transmission lines for a DLR requirement related to wind, the draft ANOPR proposes metrics to measure congestion both in RTO/ISO regions and in non-RTO/ISO regions.
Overall, the draft ANOPR preliminarily finds that transmission line ratings that incorporate dynamic line ratings – those that better reflect solar heating and, where appropriate, wind conditions – would result in more accurate system transfer capability, thereby resulting in just and reasonable rates.
The draft ANOPR seeks comment on both the need for a DLR requirement and on the proposed framework of DLR reforms. Initial comments are due 90 days after publication in the Federal Register , with reply comments due 30 days later.
Thank you, this concludes our presentation. We are happy to address any questions.

Anglika said: "presentation on" = "presentation about". He gave a presentation on the subject of child abuse = He gave a prepared lecture about the topic [probably with slides/PowerPoint] Yesterday there was a presentation at the Civic Hall on the problems of traffic control. "presentation of" = something is being presented to someone.
This clarifies the overall purpose of your talk and reinforces your reason for being there. Follow these steps: Signal that it's nearly the end of your presentation, for example, "As we wrap up/as we wind down the talk…". Restate the topic and purpose of your presentation - "In this speech I wanted to compare…". 5.
2. Use the Outline View. One other way to structure a PowerPoint presentation in the editing mode is to use Outline View. You can choose it from the VIEW tab. This view doesn't display sections, but it shows the title and main text of each slide, which can give you a quick overview of the presentation contents.
Apply the 10-20-30 rule. Apply the 10-20-30 presentation rule and keep it short, sweet and impactful! Stick to ten slides, deliver your presentation within 20 minutes and use a 30-point font to ensure clarity and focus. Less is more, and your audience will thank you for it! 9. Implement the 5-5-5 rule. Simplicity is key.
Too many could be overwhelming or distracting for your audience. 5. Conclude your presentation. A conclusion should relate back to your introduction and summarize your points, and leave your audience considering the topic you presented. The conclusion should only take up 5 to 10% of your presentation, so keep it brief.
Length and Structure. The main part should make up about 70% of the presentation and also include a clear structure. Explain your ideas in detail and build them up logically. It should be organized chronologically, by priority or by topic. There should be a smooth transition between the individual issues.
To do that, simply go up to the Home tab and click on New Slide. This inserts a new slide in your presentation right after the one you were on. You can alternatively hit Ctrl+M on your keyboard to insert a new blank slide in PowerPoint. To learn more about this shortcut, see my guide on using Ctrl+M in PowerPoint.
Tip 4: Make use of charts and graphs. We all love a good stat. Charts and graphs are a great way to present quantitative evidence and confirm the legitimacy of your claims. They make your presentation more visually appealing and make your data more memorable too. But don't delve too deep into the details.
Here are a few tips for business professionals who want to move from being good speakers to great ones: be concise (the fewer words, the better); never use bullet points (photos and images paired ...
This is a nested sequence. For example, suppose your presentation focuses on Scandinavian culture. You might choose to organize first by a topical sequence: food, music, and literature. Then, within each of these topics, you could nest a geographic sequence: Sweden, Norway, and Denmark.
Topical order - suitable for presenting on different topics in a field such as different types of problem-solving techniques. Problem-Solution order - suitable for describing a particular problem and how it can be solved. Choose the order suitable for covering the main points of your presentation for the particular section of the outline.
To do this, follow these steps: Go to the title slide or a blank slide and insert the table of contents. Switch to 'Outline View', right-click on the outline pane, and click 'Collapse'. Then, click 'Collapse All' to display only the titles. Select all the slide titles, copy them, and paste them on the desired slide.
Frame your story (figure out where to start and where to end). Plan your delivery (decide whether to memorize your speech word for word or develop bullet points and then rehearse it—over and ...
In a single location, it lets you change the sequence, triggers, and more. Go to Animations > Animation Pane to launch the control center for PPT animations. Working on the Animations tab in PowerPoint, click Animation Pane. You'll see it launch, as a sidebar menu on the right side of your PowerPoint slide.
Presentation skills are the abilities and qualities necessary for creating and delivering a compelling presentation that effectively communicates information and ideas. They encompass what you say, how you structure it, and the materials you include to support what you say, such as slides, videos, or images. You'll make presentations at various ...
Tips for creating an effective presentation. Tip. Details. Choose a font style that your audience can read from a distance. Choosing a simple font style, such as Arial or Calibri, helps to get your message across. Avoid very thin or decorative fonts that might impair readability, especially at small sizes. Choose a font size that your audience ...
Take a pause after you ask a question or make a strong statement. Spare your audience a moment to think, reflect, and ponder. Or leave a gap of silence right before you present something exciting to build suspense and anticipation. No one expects you to go on talking for 10-15 minutes without a pause.
19. Rethink Your Slide Order. Sometimes, I find that my presentations are out of order. I might spend too much time explaining my decision before I get to the conclusion. In these cases, I like to use Slide Sorter View to re-sequence the slides in my presentation. To access this view, go to View > Slide Sorter on PowerPoint's ribbon.
Go to the View Ribbon and click on the Slide Sorter icon (or click on the icon in the Status Bar). This view allows you to view multiple slides at once; click, hold, and drag the slide over to where you want the slide positioned, and then let go of the mouse button. To move multiple slides at the same time, hold down the Shift key as you click ...
