• Author slide guide/template (PowerPoint XP)

The slide guide is a combination guide, template, and detailed instructions. More detailed instructions appear in the notes pages which are not always displayed. It is suggested that you first display the guide as a slide show to get a feel for the overall guidelines. Then, select "Notes Page" under the "View" menu and display each slide again to see the detailed info. The detailed info font is a bit small on a laptop, but it's readable on a 15" monitor and prints well.

The following presentations are available as examples. The first example demonstrates a rather traditional presentation, while the second example makes more extensive use of the PowerPoint capabilities.
