Presentations can be boring when they’re not done properly. For example, some people present by simply reading off the slide, which is pointless since the audience can already see it for themselves.
If you have to give presentations often, then you might be interested in the latest update to Google Slides, Google’s answer to Microsoft’s PowerPoint. This new feature comes in the form of live highlights and annotations. This means that as you present, you can do things like highlight, circle, or add notes to an existing slide as you speak.
“We’re introducing a feature that lets you highlight or emphasize key content while you present in Google Slides. With the new pen tool, you can circle, underline, draw connections or make quick notes directly on your presentation.
Whether in a board meeting or a brainstorming session, annotations can help make your presentations more engaging, interactive and impactful.”
This will allow users to bring to attention some of the points they want to make while they are making it. It also lets them add notes in case there is feedback or questions from the audience that they can go back and look into later.
Google is in the process of rolling out the feature as we speak and they expect that it should be available to all users in the coming weeks.
