PowerPoint or pdf delivery will be acceptable, for normal delivery of a talk we would expect your talk to consist of at most about 15 - 18 slides:The following is an extract from a series of 4 booklets prepared by the IEEE to guide it's members in preparation of technical presentations, it contains some useful hints:"An introduction, opening, body and conclusion comprise the four major parts of a successful presentation. The introduction sets up your presentation by identifying the tone of your message, highlighting the importance of the subject matter and establishing your credibility. The opening provides a preview of the presentation by drawing the audience's attention to your presentation, conveying your core message and defining an outline of the upcoming points. The body is the heart of your presentation.The body defines your main points with appropriate, detail and supporting material. The body may incorporate rhetorical devices while maintaining a focus on simple, clear language to maximize comprehension.Finally, the conclusion summarizes your core message, recaps your main points and challenges the audience to take action.With these four components, you can create effective presentations to persuade, inform or share information."REFERENCE: "Technical Presentations.
