Do not (1) ________ or talk really quietly. It shouldn't be too much of a shock, but people can't hear you if you do. Remember the ones in the back (who are thinking of sneaking out early) and speak up and speak (2) __________ (so they'll stay).

No small fonts. Anything smaller than 24 point is probably a mistake. If you photocopy a paper from a book and project that, you deserve (3) _________ punishment.

You are not blocking the projection and it's annoying to have a slide (4) ________ every time the speaker touches it. There are occasions when you cannot touch the screen directly. If that is the case, put your hand into the light and make shadow pictures.

Do not use a pointer. A pointer seems (5) _________ useful if you cannot reach the projection, however, it is not. Why? 

  • - If you're nervous, the pointer dramatically magnifies the shaking of your hand.
  • - People cannot find where a laser points very quickly.
  • - Very few speakers are capable of speaking without playing with the thing that's in
