Use no more than 10 slides for 20 minutes with a font at no less than 30 points. This rule will help your PowerPoint presentations to be effective and well received by your students.
I had never heard of the 10-20-30 rule and will implement that into PP. Also, utilizing different media sources to keep the attention of students and not rely on only PP or one type of media.
I have learned that sensory methods play an integral role in teaching.
The 10/20/30 rule for the PP was new and interesting to me. Will try to incorporate more use of the Flip charts during open discussions or problem solving topics.
Powerpoints and other presentation must be created intentionally in order to yield an effective response from learners.
I need to be a neat writer and illustrator... This skill set I have not mastered! I was terrible at Pictionary... PowerPoint is an effective tool to catch their eye and to stay focused on the material within the slides.
Use of multi-media is very useful teaching methods.

Powerpoint is one of the primary mediums instructors are able to use in order to summarize a large amount of content into a platform that is able to be discussed. Powerpoints can be powerful however if done incorrectly they can push student engagement further away which is bad. 10-20-30 seems helpful and I will strive to make my powerpoints shorter.
Ive no experience with PP but I'm very interested in creating several, at this point. this lesson gave me great ideas and starting points for PP, I'm looking forward to utilizing my own presentations that are more current and at times relevant to the field now.
I have learned that incorporating a variety media and interest to the class will help keep students motivated and help see their chosen career within reach.
I learned that more slides on a power point with fewer points will get a better Knowledge transfer.
As a visual learner, I ensure my content is engaging and allows me to tie in real world experiences to assist with my lecture or instruction. Its helpful to know the equipment and know what to do when the equipment isn't cooperating as a back up so the learning experience is not disrupted.
When presenting a lecture and using media it should be short and to the point. Using the 10/20/30 rule is a good way to stay on tract. Make sure you make good choices of media, and you feel comfortable with it as a useful tool.
Check with your institution to see what their polices are in relation to social media use so you can develop your compliant strategies for the use of social media with your students. You will need to set rules for the use of mobile devices in your classes so they can be used as helpful learning devices and not distractions.
I will continue to incorporate pp presentations within my courses and encourage students to use them as well.
I learned to use teaching methods were the students use their senses and to use the 10-20-30 rule for my presentations.
Students are adept to retain 60-80% of lecture materials if at least two senses are activated throughout the teaching process.
Probably rewriting my PP presentation to follow some of the guidelines listed here.
I learned of the 10-20-30 rule. I also learned it is important to not have more than 3-5 points per slide.
I think it's important for an instructor to be able to create their own resources and visuals for classes. It gives the student a visual/audio/hands-on resource that is directly from the instructor and not just from a textbook.
