Thank you for this excellent article, Ms. Marchand. I would like to add two remarks:

1. If the PPT is going to be translated, it is even more important to pare down the content of the slides: a French or Spanish version will be up to 25% longer than the English original.

2. The presenter should make an effective use of the Notes section instead of cramming the slides with information that will only distract the audience.

Have a great day!

Thank you again fo
