Like the idiom "a picture is worth a thousand words", a well-designed slideshow can present information better than spreadsheets and documents. But how can we use PowerPoint's features to easily create slides that are clear, captivating, and concise?
David's talk will help your data take center stage in a fast-paced lecture that covers the creation and formatting of charts and tables in PowerPoint, including related slide-enhancing techniques:
- Best practices when copying and pasting from Excel
- Linking data in PowerPoint back to Excel for automatic updates
- Maintaining consistent formatting between slides and charts
- Adding annotations (text, arrows, circles, etc.)
- Animating charts and annotations
- Techniques on keeping it simple
Audience questions will be encouraged throughout the live demonstration.
