ENG 135 Wk 5 - Review of Report Analysis Presentation(New)

Building on the Report Analysis you completed in Week 4, create a 10- to 12-slide PowerPoint presentation of your analysis and recommendations. This assignment will allow you to demonstrate the application of visual content delivery for successful communication.

Include the following in your presentation:

• A visual presentation that complements the Fortune 500 company you selected for the Week 4 assignment.

• Effective design consistency that includes complementary background design, bullets of key presentation points, and additional images to capture viewers' attention.

Tips from the Professor:

The purpose of this assignment is to create an attractive and eye-catching PowerPoint presentation and show off your visual design skills.

Imagine you work for a Fortune 500 company and are planning a professional presentation for employees or shareholders (based on the business report you chose in Week 4). Use your Week 4 report analysis assignment to cull information you can add to your PowerPoint. You can also go back to the company business report for more information to include.

Your PowerPoint will be evaluated on visual design, including:

1) Attractive and appropriate background design relevant to your selected company.

2) Use of additional images to enhance the presentation (i.e. charts, graphs, and SmartArt). You can also find great images using Google Images to jazz up your presentation.

3) Effective use of bullet points

Bullets should be sized neither too large nor too small. Bullets should be short phrases focused on key points. Avoid whole sentences and paragraphs of information. (Viewers should never be more focused on reading slides than listening to the presenter.)

Avoid slides that are too sparse or too crowded with text and images.
