Implementing the theory requires
relearning to use PowerPoint
2
We have all been told to use
graphics to make more effective
PowerPoint presentations
3
We end up using clip art "eye candy"
4
“Tell them what you’re going to tell them, tell them, tell them what you
told them”
5
It has been a constant struggle to decide how to structure a
presentation
6
Start the presentation design with a
design template, not PowerPoint
7
Use the “BBP_template.xls” file that
embodies the template
8
Set up the story first

Now implement the design in PowerPoint
11
The sentence from each cell will become a slide title
12
In the "Notes View," write the narrative for each slide
13
Finally, add graphics to illustrate or reinforce the slide's message
14
Achieving BBP results requires new resources
15
BBP is shorthand
for this design
strategy
16
Beyond Bullet Points (BBP) is Atkinson's approach to
presentation design
17
Duarte's "Slide:ology" complements BBP with advice about graphical
design
18
The BBP page on our wiki has links to these and other resources
19
We need new templates to
implement BBP

Collaboration is key to
achieving superior results
24
Boris, Mark, and Bob found collaboration
to be effective and useful
25
Collaboration during design is more like pair-programming than peer
review

We’re collecting a gallery of BBP presentations on the wiki
