To excel in your presentations, you will need content, passion, and a keen sense of the audience [www. psyclops. com] [ted. com] [Alley, 2013] [www. wildchimpanzees. org]
You begin preparing a scientific presentation by analyzing your constraints what they know why they are there audience purpose to inform to persuade [Alley, 2013] occasion time room
To excel in your scientific presentations, you guide your audience up the mountain of your work Appreciating the view * Keeping audience on the path Orienting audience at the start [Alley, 2013]
Slides influence the preparation, delivery, and understanding of a scientific presentation [Alley, 2013]
A key assumption is that slides are needed for that part of the presentation [estevejobs. com] [Alley, 2013]

Another assumption is that the slides we project should differ from our handout ≠ [Alley, 2013]

Another assumption is that the slides that we project are for our audience, rather than for us ≠ [Alley, 2013]
The third step in creating assertion-evidence slides is to change the defaults of Power. Point [Alley, 2013]
