Effective Visuals: Complement don't Compete

Monday, September 30, 2024 16:30to17:30

In this workshop, participants learn how to avoid the pitfalls of building slides that have too much information, take too long to process, and compete for audience attention. By understanding the limits of human visual and auditory language processing, participants learn how they can focus on how to work within these limits. This workshop covers slide design, slide testing, slide timing, and when to do without slides at all.

This workshop is part of SKILLSETS’ Presentation Skills series. Check our website for more workshops in this series.

Learning outcomes:

  • Create complementary visuals that aid rather than compete with comprehension
  • Correct the most common problems presenters have with their slides
  • Establish strategies to properly test the effectiveness and impact of core visuals
