PRESENTATION TEMPLATE IS UPDATED!

This page contains template for creating presentations, instructions for creating presentations, and presenting instructions. You can download presentation template below:

Instructions for presenters and speakers:

  • The total time allotted to each speaker is 20 minutes. You should plan to speak for around 15 minutes and another 5 minutes should remain for questions.
  • Invited speakers have 45 minutes for their presentation in total, and they should plan to speak for about 35-40 minutes, leaving 5-10 minutes for questions.

Instructions for creating a presentation:

  • Show 1 slide per minute of speaking time. This means approximately 15 slides maximum 15 minutes of presentation at the conference (remember to leave a few minutes for questions).
  • Recognize and present the most important parts of work and research! Avoid numeorus graphs, equations or tables in a rapid sequence!
  • Make the letters on your slides readable – the suggested minimum font size is 14.
  • Number the slides for quick reference.
  • Put no more than 12 lines of text or 4 curves on the slide.
  • In addition to the body of the presentation, present an introduction and conclusion.
  • The elementary parts of the presentation are: content, short introduction, research paper core, and a discussion/conclusion.

Tips for presenting:

  • Avoid lengthy tabulations of numerical data and limit equations to those for which the terms can be properly defined.
  • Your audience needs time to interpret the data that you present. While you are familiar with the data displayed, the audience is not. Describe the abscissa, coordinates, units, and the legend for each curve.
  • When you display a curve, tell the audience what they should be looking for to grasp the point you are trying to make. The audience will not have time to figure it out for themselves.
  • Use repetition in your talk to ensure the audience understands the facts.
  • Include only information or data that can be properly explained in the allotted time.
  • Repeat any questions that are posed to you.
  • If a question requires a lengthy reply, suggest that you and the person asking the question meet after the presentation. Then take the discussion out of the meeting room.
