Pictures vs.1000 words?

When preparing visual aids for your presentation, don't overwhelm with the written word. It may be better to give a PowerPoint slideshow with a few well-chosen photos and wow the audience with well-chosen words as your narration.

On-line photo sharing is a great way to share the pictures you may need for a presentation, symposium research poster, study abroad term, or service learning project. Consider setting up a Flickr account. Instead of emailing pictures, let your audience find you. Encourage your class to set up a group to share images from a service project. This could be especially helpful for the ESL and study abroad students who want to share photos with their family and friends back home.
