These slides have one thing in common—they contain too much STUFF! In fact, they are stuffed to the gills with text and graphics. Whether the text and graphics are crammed next to, or on top of, each other, the result is that the audience feels overwhelmed and overloaded. People tune out instead of tuning in. Communication suffers and no one learns or understands much.
