The purpose of this presentation is to develop the skills necessary to create a PowerPoint presentation with audio or video. You can download a PDF copy of the Unit Assignment if that is easier for you.
Task
For this assignment, you will record a PowerPoint presentation with audio or video presenting your business report. Please note that you are encouraged to record yourself on video for practice, but you can choose to only record an audio presentation without it impacting your grade. Here are a couple of tips to consider that will help make your presentation successful:
Use your executive summary to help you determine the content for your presentation.
Writing that summary has already helped you determine the key points of your report. Putting together your PowerPoint presentation then becomes a matter of translating the summary into PowerPoint slides.
Remember, a good PowerPoint presentation doesn’t try to put too much information on a single slide. It’s okay to have more than ten slides. Think of your PowerPoint presentation as a visual equivalent of your executive summary.
While it’s okay to have more than ten slides, too many slides can kill the effectiveness of a presentation. Fifteen slides may be acceptable, but more slides than that include perhaps too much detail for a presentation.
