Detailed explanation-1: -Follow the “Seven-by-Seven rule” Use no more than 7 words per line and no more than 7 lines per visual. b. If you need more words, make sub-points below the main point.
Detailed explanation-2: -Primary function of slides is to augment YOUR presentation, not restate what you are saying.
