It should be concise and avoid fancy.

Remember that PPT only assists you in your defense, which is a formal occasion. PPT is best not to be too fancy, simple and refreshing.

Avoid long paragraphs of text.

Large paragraphs in PPT will make people confused about the key points, just like reading Word. Before doing PPT, organize the structure and refine the titles and keywords in the text.

Pay attention to paging

PPT should convey 3~5 concepts per page, with no more than 7 concepts at most. Too much content on a page will make people feel burdened, so it is better to separate it.

Uniform font size

Font sizes of different contents should be distinguished, for example, the title should be bold 44, the title 1 should be bold 32, the title 2 should be bold 28, and the title should be within 10 as far as possible.

Graphic typesetting

Pay attention to the uniform size of the picture, and the picture should not be deformed. When you don't have many pictures to typeset, you can make this card if you know how to typeset them well.

Make good use of charts

Sort by attractiveness: chart > table > text. Try to organize the data into a chart, which looks clear at a glance and matches the concise conclusion.

Be careful with animation and sound effects.

Sometimes downloaded PPT templates have animation and sound effects. Remember to delete them! Formal occasions are dominated by quick reports, and fancy animations and sound effects will backfire.

Speech prompting device

If you are worried about forgetting words, you can write a manuscript in advance and put it on the Remarks page. You can open [Speaker View Mode] to read the teleprompter during the speech.

Ending thanks

Remember to thank the teacher at last and set aside time to ask questions. Be careful not to write "thank you for listening", which is a wrong usage.

control time

The time for reply is limited, so we must rehearse in advance. You can use the [timing] function that comes with PPT to estimate the defense time, so as to know fairly well.
