 Overhead Transparencies

• Focus the overhead projector and clean the glass for clear projection

• Bring along an extra light bulb

• Present your transparencies in sequence

• When you have covered the information on the transparency, cover it or turn off light

• Do not leave the projector on when not in use

• Locate projector so that you can stand beside it, not behind it

• Alternate each transparency with a blank piece of paper so transparencies will not stick together

• Create information that is large enough for the audience to read

• Do not overload each transparency with too much information
