Time:
The exercise in this module will take about 30 minutes to complete. In total, allowing for discussion, we recommend allowing 60 minutes to complete this module.

Aims:
• To encourage participants to consider how visual aids could be improved.
• To engage participants in developing effective visual aids.
• To identify some key dos and don’ts for visual aids.

Group Size:
This module is suitable for use with groups of up to 15 participants.

Useful For:
Staff with low levels of experience of giving presentations.

You'll Need:
• Participants will be working in teams of 2-3. Each team will need to use a computer, laptop or tablet that has PowerPoint installed.
• Access to the internet would be preferable.
• A prize for the winning team would be a nice touch.

Notes:
Prior to running this module you will need to ensure that you have either pre-loaded the slides the teams will be reviewing onto the machines or have given them a copy that they have themselves downloaded onto their machines.

If your participants won’t have access to PowerPoint for this exercise, it can be adapted so that participants create paper versions of the new slides, although this is less effective.
