PowerPoint Requirements:
Length: 10 to 15 slides (excluding the cover slide and the reference slide).
Design:
Be sure not to overcrowd your slides with information.
Be thorough, but also be concise.
Use bullet points to highlight main points.
If you use graphics, be sure to condense them, so your presentation is not too large.
Mechanics: PowerPoint does not require that you write full sentences or paragraphs; in fact, this will detract from your presentation. However, your ideas must flow logically and your points should be presented in a consistent format. Check your spelling and use standard American English.
You should consult at least three (3) SCHOLARLY sources in preparing your presentation. Your last slide should be a References slide following APA format.
*Late assignments will not be accepted; however, you may turn your assignment in early.
