Better Slides, Better Lectures

Description: Create more effective and engaging lecture presentations using evidence-based strategies for design and delivery.

  2. Apply accessibility and inclusivity guidelines (e.g., contrast, perceivability, and compatibility with assistive technologies) to ensure slides are pedagogically sound and usable by all learners.
  3. Coordinate visuals and narration effectively when presenting slides to stimulate interest and curiosity, emphasize relevance, and enhance student-to-content and student-to-instructor engagement in both live and recorded teaching formats.
