Online VET research where contemporary cognitive load theories have been applied to PowerPoint slide design

PowerPoint – it’s a staple in education and we all know how to use it, right? Or do we? How many times have you seen bad visuals that just make you cringe? Well guess what – bad slides don’t just make you cringe, they also sabotage learning.

Our research included a review of hundreds of PowerPoint decks, as well as conducting learner focus groups and monitoring and analysing learning outcomes. That work revealed that most learning content slides have design mistakes that impact learning.

• Embrace insights from research on cognitive load and slide design.
• See the impact slide design has on learning engagement and outcomes.
