Chapter 21, Additional Exercise 2: Evaluating Presentation-Graphics Templates

Microsoft’s template gallery contains almost four dozen templates for PowerPoint slides. In groups of two or three, search the gallery for "PowerPoint" and then study one of the templates. Choose a template in a category that relates to technical communication, such as "Presenting a Technical Report," "Recommending a Strategy," or "Project Status Report." How well does the design of the template reflect the principles explained in Chapter 21? How helpful is the information suggested in the text of the template? Be prepared to share your findings with the class.
