Charts
Charts allow you to visually depict summaries of numeric data for an audience. Charts help audiences
quickly identify key points about data that would normally take a longer time to explain. A common
example of a chart is a frequency table that shows the total for each category or group

Graphs
Graphs help illustrate how numerical data relates to one another
. Statistics are helpful if the audience
can understand them, and graphs illustrate the impact and relationship of numerical information,
Graphs come in different forms and you should choose the one that best illustrates your information in
the most clear, uncomplicated way.
Let’s briefly examine the three types of graphs that are most commonly used as presentation aids. First

there are line graphs, which are lines drawn along two axes to show growth, loss, or flat developments

you put too much text on the slideshow, the audience will be too busy reading and they could lose focus
on your speech. Additionally, you might be tempted to read from the PowerPoint, losing connection
Figure 10.7 is an effective, clear, and well organized slide that has limited text and images. Conversely,
Figure 10.8 is cluttered with text and images which can potentially distract the audience during a
speech with a lot to read and visually digest.
Design Background
To begin, consider the template you want to use in your slideshow. A
consistent visual theme such as the PowerPoint Design Templates
may
be an option or you can design your own. Let your creativity
show but remember, less is always more.
Slideshow presentation programs have a myriad of color selections
to choose from. Remember that color can help your audience focus
on a specific item on the slide, and it can also contribute to the CALIFORNIA DROUGH
mood or emotional dimensions of your speech. It is important that
the lettering is visible, therefore choosing a light background or
theme with dark font is ideal. Figure 10.9 is an example of a design Figure 10.9 Poorly designed background
background that poorly complements the on-screen text.
Much like citing the sources of the authors you use, if you choose to use an image that belongs to
someone else, make sure to give them credit. Or search for fair use images that are free to use without
permission from the artist or photographer. This not only boosts your credibility as a speaker but pays
respect to the artist of the image who designed or created it.

that uses a blurry, stolen image and contains a
blatant spelling error, all of which could hurt your
credibility upon presentation.
Figure 10.11 represents a clear, high resolution
image that grabs the audience’s attention. Not only is
it visually appealing, the speaker properly attributes
ownership of the image to the photographer.
