1. From the ted talk: 10 tips for better slide decks, I learned that you should recreate simple graphs or charts before putting them on your slides. This allows for you to have more control of the graph/chart, the colors, typography and more.

2. Garr Reynolds taught be how to and when to properly use pie charts in power points. I learned that to limit the slice to 4-6, as well as showing the most important percentages in the chart I should enlarge that slide of change the color so something noticeable and attention grabbing.

3. Garr Reynolds also taught me to the “B” key will make the slide on a powerpoint presentation go blank. This allows for the audience’s attention to be placed on you, and then when you want to audience to see the slide again, you just press the “B” key again.
