Speaking Tips

“Prefer non-triggering, simple colours – as opposed to bright contrasting colour combinations – when laying out information on slides, handouts, or other documents.”

“Shield audience members who can easily be distracted from potential unwanted distractions, by minimizing all external stimulations that could get in the way of learning.”

“Make sure to always provide synchronized captions and transcript files every time pre-recorded video and audio files are used as part of your content and delivery.”

“Ensure that any blinking, flashing and other strobing effects never occur more than 2-3 times per second to avoid risks of photo-epileptic seizures for your audience.”

“Instead of just pointing or referring to the visual assets presented on your slides, describe them verbally when the information they convey supports your content.”

“Ensure any information only conveyed through colour in your printed and digital content is also supported through text, visual cues and/or other additional means.”

“Make sure the quantity of text used on the screen is kept to a minimum, and choose more visually engaging and compelling ways to tell your story instead.”
