Seven Deadly Slides

PowerPoint Slides That Every Student Should Avoid – and how to fix them

• Teaching PowerPoint Slideshow – fully scripted and editable
• Teacher’s Notes (pdf)
• Student Handout (pdf)
• Revision Video (mp4)

This can be used as a single lesson that can be delivered to your class in one period – a great way to pre-empt those terrible traps that students fall into when collating their slideshow.

The Student Handout will remind them of the key points in good slide design. It will show them typical examples of the 7 Deadly Slides together with images of how they can be fixed quickly.

The revision video can be used as a stand-alone learning resource or for them to access whenever they need to be reminded of the principles.
