Presentation Requirement

For making slides and doing presentation efficiently, here is a check list:

• Focus on the intuition, get rid of formality (no formular!).
• Include slide number!
• Fewer slides; Make each slide a story!
• Never copy&paste text from paper; tell the story in your own words!
• Talk about things you do understand, ignore things you don't (and admit it when being asked about).
• Follow the logic flow; make sure every word in a slide is explained before entering the slide!
