TIPS FOR COURSE POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS

SOC 110HA

At the beginning of class, you will choose a chapter from McDonaldization: The Reader and then develop

a PowerPoint presentation in which you will answer the “Thinking Critically” questions listed at the end

of the reading. The presentation is due in Module 7. It is worth 10% of your final grade. Your grade will

be based on how well you followed the guidelines below.

Content:

Your presentation should include the following elements:

 Title slide (including title of your article, your name, and the course number)

 Summary of the content of the article (1 slide)

o PLEASE NOTE: The summary should NOT be a condensed version of Ritzer’s introduction

to the text. Using his text will be considered plagiarism, and result in a 0 for the

assignment and be reported to the Academic Standards Committee.

 At least one slide and no more than three slides for each “Thinking Critically” question at the

end of the reading

o PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended that you use your textbook and other valid outside

sources, properly cited in ASA, APA, or MLA format, to support your answers. The

McDonaldization LibGuide contains an extensive list of books, websites, journal articles,

and other articles from newspapers and magazines that you can use. Please do NOT

include videos.

 References slide (list all the outside sources you used in your presentation, including the

reference for your article, in proper ASA, APA, or MLA format)

How to design a good PowerPoint presentation

 PowerPoint is a visual tool, you should make the most of it. Minimize the amount of text on the

slides, and combine it with pictures, photos, tables, charts, or diagrams as relevant.

 Pay attention to your choice of slide design. You want something that links well to your

presentation and is visually appealing, but you do not want a background that competes against

your content. Your instructor has to be able to read your slides.

 Additionally, to enhance visual appeal, think about using some features in SmartArt (under the

Insert tab of the PowerPoint menu) to organize your content.

 When you use text, do not include too much information on one slide. Instead of writing

paragraphs, use phrases arranged in bullet points. As a rule, you should not use a font size

smaller than 20 for your text. Think about using colors to make important phrases or words

stand out. Think of PowerPoint as a detailed outline of what you are going to say. Summarize

the key information on your slides, not everything you will say.

 Do NOT include direct quotes from any source. Paraphrase and summarize ideas instead. This
