Foil 10 Lecture Slides (such as PowerPoint)

From Using TangoInterative in Distance Education Jackson State Miss. Training Workshop -- 16-17 August 99. by David Bernholdt, Nancy McCracken
The same rules apply as for regular classroom use as far as making slides clear and visually appealing.
  • Type font sizes in the range of 20 to 24 pts.
  • Diagrams and images are nice.
But there are other restrictions due to the fact that each slide must download to both the instructor and students over the network.
  • Although dense slides are not good in general, try to put enough information on each slide so that you don't have to change slides too often! (Avoid slide backgrounds that take up 1/3 of each slide with the background image!)
  • Slides with large images will take longer to download.
