Presentation Expectations
Multimedia presentations should engage the intended audience through graphics, diagrams, photos, and text used in a concise manner. Speaker notes should round out the content material.

—- “Speaker notes” : this is where the details and data should be
—- “Text” : large enough for audience to read / bulleted points / legible fonts
