 Putting the power in PowerPoint. Extras Extras are the additional things you can add to your slides. Adding extras makes a presentation more attractive, but adding too many extras is distracting for the audience. Clipart The simple images available for you to use on your slides are called clipart. PowerPoint has a built-in clipart option. You can add clipart to any presentation. Thumbnail A thumbnail is a small preview of an image. Scanning through thumbnail images is faster than looking through many full-sized images. Align text. To keep your slides organized, you should align your text. Aligning means to make sure the text starts in the same place on every line. The most common alignment is left. Transition A transition is a way to move from slide to slide. There are many transition options in PowerPoint. You can choose from fade, push, wipe, and many more. Animation Adding animation to a slide adds movement to it. Using too much animation will distract your audience. Text and images can be set to appear, fade, fly in, and more. Recording There is an option for recording in PowerPoint. You can add audio to your slides by recording your voice. Clutter Clutter means having too many things on a slide. Clutter prevents the audience from seeing the most important information. Adding too many extras creates clutter. Distract Distract means to move attention away from what is important. Too many extras prevent the audience from understanding the main idea of your presentation. Mix fonts Mixing fonts means to use more than one font on a slide. Your presentation will be easier for the audience to read if you do not mix fonts. Maximize contrast Slides with high contrast are easier to read. To maximize contrast, you should use dark text on a light background. An example is using black text on a light gray background. Color fade Slides with low contrast are difficult to read. Color fade results when you use light text on a light background. An example is using yellow text on a light gray background. Is that end?
