PowerPoint is the easiest of the applications we’ve used so far, yet it carries the highest visual impact. When
creating a presentation, it can be very easy to use distracting techniques that negatively affect our presentation
in front of an audience. From THE LIST OF DISTRACTIONS below, select 1 distraction from the list and
describe how or why it could be a distracting technique to use in front of an audience.
More than 1 student may choose the same distraction from THE LIST below – that is fine, no problem at all.
