Five Ways to reduce PowerPoint overload
  • By Cliff Atkinson and Richard E. Mayer

3
PowerPoint overload is a common problem in many
organizations
4
The problem stands in the way of effective
strategy, sales, and learning
5
Fortunately, there is research that presents a
pathway for solutions
6
To solve the problem we have to understand how
the mind works
7
Cognitive scientists say the mind processes
information in 2 channels
8
The mind pays attention to only a few pieces of
information in each channel
9
The mind needs to select, organize, and integrate
whats important
10
Five research-based techniques can help you
reduce the PowerPoint load
11
1. Write a clear headline that explains the main
idea of every slide
12
2. Break up your story into digestible bites in
the Slide Sorter view
13
3. Reduce visual load by moving text off-screen
and narrating the content
14
4. Use visuals with your words, instead of words
alone
15
Rigorously remove every element that does not
support the main idea
16
