Academic Presentation Slides - improve your PPT slides.
How to improve your PPT slides for an academic presentation at university. It discusses design, fonts, structure, animation, pictures, graphs, and referencing.
Disclaimer: This presentation is just a basic 'overall' guide and there are many different ways to present your slides. However, I have graded over 1000 academic presentations and following some of these ideas is good advice especially to improve audience engagement.

Thank you very much. the video is very clear and handy with the basic but necessary guidance. I was sitting in the classroom for 2 hours and was still not clear how to create the PowerPoint, but now have a better understanding after watching the video. Thanks again.

Hi, thank you for the positive feedback. I always teach this lesson to my academic students. It's simple and logical. It covers all their questions and summarises what some tutors take hours to explain. :)
Thank you. Very basic yet clear information.

a great example of how an academic presentation totally kills the presentation with too much crap

I hate them but increasingly, professors ask for slide presentations (with copious speaker notes) in place of essays. Ugh.

Unfortunately, this what you should do to do well in university academic English assessments.
Helpful. I wonder how to get that graph/table animation to work, where it doesn't come in for a bit, shows up, then goes back to the bulleted list. Anyone?

Sorry bit late with reply :(. I used PowerPoint animation for this - appear and exit effects. You can control the setting through the 'animation panel'.
Thank you for you tips

Will it be copyright, if I use diagrams from a book and give credit to the book?

hi, thanks for reaching out. NO, it won't be copyright but you must include the reference under the diagram and in the reference list. Obviously, if this was for commercial / business use then you would have to contact the author for permission.
A rule of thumb any presentation should not make any sense until you explain it.

Yes! I completely agree. If I understand it from your slides, there is no need for you to explain it to me. Great comment!

I respectfully disagree with much of the advice in this video. Thanks for the inspiration, though!

Hi, thanks for your comment. The video is designed to give International students a basic background to a formal presentation at university. The main focus is key points, references and clear transitions.

@@AcademicEnglishUK Hey, I *should* have mentioned, I respectfully agree with *most* of the advice. But I do disagree with much of it. For example, one slide for 1-2 minutes of speaking... I would go much lower on the slides. You can give a great 15 minute presentation with just 3 slides - in-fact the very best presentations have no slides; but sometimes you just really need a photo of a rocket or something, it's OK! Also, Times New Roman is, in my humble opinion, not a great font to use these days. It looks too 1998. I would stick with Tahoma, Cambria, Calibri or Source Sans Pro. Arial, if you really must... These are just my opinions. I also teach EAP to international students and I'm teaching a PSE Course right at this moment and we've been hammering this stuff for the past two weeks in prep for the assessed individual presentations - but, I respectfully acknowledge it's got to be "horses for courses".
