From the presentations we had today in class, the ones I liked the most were Dennis, Juan, and Paul's presentations. Denns's presentation was unique, and I like the fact that he used dinosaurs as his topic. It was really short with just two slides, had small font which made it hard to read, and the images were very confusing because there were a lot of images of different kinds of dinosaurs. Afterwards, Juan's presentation was confusing because it had a lot of pictures, and the font was small, making it hard to read for the audience and even for him. Finally, Paul's presentation was, in my opinion, the best because he explained clearly how not to do a bad power point. First you need to make sure the technology works, the images and graphics should be clear and easy to understand. He also said you need to finish in time. Most of the presentations shown in class were fun and were really bad, achieving the purpose of the homework.
Things to do in power point presentation- Cite the pictures
- Don't have spelling mistakes
- Use clear colors so the audience can read
- Make the font big enough
- Finish in time
- Make sure the technology works
Things not to do in power point presentation
- Confusing colors
- A busy and distracting background
- Never cite the pictures
- Spelling mistakes
- Make it boring
- Order of presentation illogical

Your presentation was terrible but at the same time good. You noted important things that a bad PowerPoint presentation includes. For example using low pixel images and making them big, having spelling mistakes, and confusing your audience with a lot of animations and images.
Good Job!
Jaime- your presentation was really good. You did a good job of noting what is bad to do in a PowerPoint presentation. Not checking your spelling as well as confusing the audience with too many graphics was a good idea.
I like how you made it hard to read some of the text in your presentation. Also the slide with the picture works really well because you made the picture so blurry.
