Give this presentation 0-3 if: Give this presentation 4-7 if: Give this presentation 8-10 if:
The graphic design is unappealing and the collection of slides do not fit as a unit, having no uniformity or effective transition and animation effects. Presenters have taken advantage of the capabilities of the programme to create a new presentation of information and materials, the pages are attractive and some uniformity exists. Transitions and animations exist, but are disruptive to the audience (inappropriate).  The Presentation is original, exemplifies excellent graphic design and uniformity, and uses the many capabilities of the programme to create an engaging presentation for the audience. Transitions and animations are well-chosen.

6. Evaluate the use of graphics and multimedia in the presentation.

 
Give this presentation 0-3 if: Give this presentation 4-7 if: Give this presentation 8-10 if:
The Presentation contain no, or very few, graphics.

Or

The graphics chosen are totally inappropriate to the context of the presentation.

The Presentation makes some use of graphic stimuli which are not consistently appropriate. Their size and placement may also be obtrusive and demand too much attention from the audience, at the expense of the speaker. The Presentation creatively exploits the use of graphics and multimedia. This is highly appropriate and tastefully done, thereby supporting the speaker, rather than competing with the speaker.
