Each Slide or visual

NOTE #1: Limit the amount of text on your slides. It is better to have more slides with less text than too much text on one slide. This is just a basic guide. Use as many slides as necessary. Use at least size 22 font. Avoid dark backgrounds with light fonts.

NOTE #2: your presentation should not be a mechanical reading of material on your slides OR a retelling of the plot of the stories that you read. Rather, your slides should support your lecture. You may bring in note cards to work from as your present.

There are dozens of sites and tools available. The best options allow everyone to collaborate and communicate asynchronously.
