introductory slides in the audience-friendly pattern described in the table below

Your purpose in this activity is to design your introductory slides for a full PowerPoint slide set next week. (Use Google Slides or another program if you’re more familiar with it.) Your topic, as mentioned last week, is the one you used for your illustrated business-style report. 

Here’s a blueprint/outline for the three parts of these directions:

Recommended process

Step 1: By Tuesday, create your own introductory slides in the audience-friendly pattern described in the table below. Imitate the design techniques in one or more of the sample introductory slides you looked at earlier this week.

Here’s 

a sample set of introductory slides with annotations

 in the Notes spaces below slides. The annotations describe how each slide meets the criteria for this week’s draft.

Subject: Outlawing Controlled Substances and Growth of the Black Market

The black market is rumored to be equal or more significant than most legal markets with regards to market capitalization. Some figures claim that the current value of the globe’s black markets stands at 1.98 trillion dollars. However, the secret nature of the market makes it hard to ascertain its real worth. The constant boom of the black market and black market trade is attributed fact to the legislation put in place for the moderation of controlled services.

I have no idea what black market is. I will start by defining black market in the simplest terms. Black market is some type of illegal trading of services or goods that cannot satisfy demand due to scarcity or heavy taxation. A market is termed “black market” mainly because of three reasons;

1. The illegal structure of the transaction.

2. The illegal nature of services or goods sold.

3. The illegal structure of transaction as well as illegal nature of services or goods being transacted.

The transactions performed in these black markets are unrecorded. People trade services or goods in the black markets because they want to evade taxation of illegal goods or services. Some participate in black market trade because they are unaware that there are laws they are not adhering to. For instance, many people hire housekeepers but do not realize they are meant to pay employment taxes. Another reason is licensing restrictions imposed by the government on a many occupations forcing some workers to opt for black markets because of the money and time required to obtain the required licenses.

The argument over whether an outlawing controlled substances leads to the growth of the black market is a long-standing one. This measure which aimed at deterring the use of controlled substances has associations with the constant growth of the black market. Several factors can be attributed to the boom and expansion of the black market as we shall cover throughout this report.

The outlawing of controlled substances has led to the boom of the black market for some reasons:

· Controlled substance scarcity – The scarcity of controlled substances leads to higher demand for these substances.

· Increased market privacies – The black market network provides more privacy as compared to legal markets.

· High profits – Black market trade is highly profitable.

Here, I provide subheadings for the reason such as controlled substance scarcity, increased market privacies, and high profits. These shortened subheadings can enable a reader to easily and quickly get a glimpse of the reasons. The explanation that follows the subheadings enhances understanding.

How to Clean your Computer
by Steven Mance
Computer Enthusiast and
Digital Forensics Major
A Beginner’s Guide to Dust Removal

For oral delivery: Hi, I’m Steve Mance. I got interested in this topic when my dad asked me to help him set up a second-hand computer he’d just bought . . .

How this slide meets criteria for introductory slides:
The cover page includes a title
The picture is relevant for the topic
The author’s name is 30-point type
The author’s credentials show credibility

2

Why keep your computer clean?
Prolonged dust buildup will:
Add stress to moving parts
Restrict airflow
Hinder cooling abilities
Reduce overall lifespan of the PC

Notes for oral delivery: Caked on dust reduces the cooling capabilities of PC hardware which can lead to overheating. Over time, overheating can damage the computer’s hardware and cause performance issues. It is important to keep computer hardware clean to prevent potential costly repairs or data loss.
How this slide meets criteria for introductory slides:
White space makes reading the slide easy
Content is placed closer to the title than to the top bottom (the design Rule of Thirds)
40 point type used for title
32 point type used in text body
A “logo” image distinguishes the title area of the slide
3

Purpose
To teach beginners how to safely clean the inside of their personal computers

Notes for oral delivery: The task of cleaning computer hardware is not as difficult as it seems. By following general guidelines, even a beginner can safely and easily clean their PC to prevent future damage.
How this slide meets criteria for introductory slides:
The speaker’s purpose (not the purpose of the term) is clearly stated
The phrase is place closer to the title
The single phrase does not begin with a bullet point
4

What we’ll cover:
Required equipment
Safety considerations
Cleaning

How this slide meets criteria for introductory slides:
Content is again closer to the title than to the bottom
Blueprint is limited to 3 parts
The designer uses a special bullet style (box)
The slide design is related to previous slides and has a different colored background and a different color for the title
To further distinguish this “organizational” slide from the content slides so far–#3 and #4, the slide logo appears in a new position in a much larger format
5

What we’ll cover:
Required equipment
Safety considerations
Cleaning

How this slide meets criteria for introductory slides:
The red slide title picks up a color in the logo image
A check mark announces the first section of the talk
The designer uses the bold color-red color to make the section announcement stand out from the list of the talk as a whole
