[edit] Template: Wiki format presentation
Copy this presentation template to a text editor or use it directly for the appropriate MySQL University session page.
=== Title of your session === * Give an overview of the whole presentation * Try to restrict your overview to 5 main bullet points: ** First topic ** Second topic ** Third topic ** Fourth topic ** Fifth topic ==== Title of 1st overview slide (1:0) ==== * Give an overview of the next couple of slides to come, like this: ** First topic *** First sub-topic *** Second sub-topic *** Etc. (yes, that looks pretty much like a table of contents) * If you use only few (10 or less) slides, there's no need for overview slides, in which case you may want to move the following sub-slides' headings up one level ===== Title of 1st sub-slide (1:1) ===== * Remember * Only 20 words per slide * Yes, that's a challenge :-) ===== Title of 2nd sub-slide (1:2) ===== * Here's a code example /* This is a code example */ /* You'll probably need more than 20 words on this slide */ /* Try to keep it short, anyway, by: */ /* ... (using ellipses) */ /* '''highlighting''' the '''most important''' parts */ * Avoid giving explanations for that code example on the slide * Rather than that, explain during the presentation ===== Title of 3rd sub-slide (1:3) ===== * Here's a code example with a reference /* This is an example<ref>Details: http://example.com/this-example/example.html</ref> */ /* This is another example<ref>Details: http://example.com/another-example</ref> */ ---- </references/> ===== Title of 4th sub-slide (1:4) ===== * If you can, use pictures and diagrams [[Image:Example.jpg]] * Use standalone pictures, or at least add very few words to slides containing pictures ===== Title of 5th sub-slide (1:5) ===== * If you must use tables, keep them short <table> <tr><th>1st column header</th><th>2nd column header</th></tr> <tr><td>1st column value</td><td>2nd column value</td></tr> <tr><td>1st column value</td><td>2nd column value</td></tr> <tr><td>1st column value</td><td>2nd column value</td></tr> <tr><td>1st column value</td><td>2nd column value</td></tr> </table> ==== Title of 2nd overview slide (2:0) ==== * (copy from above) ===== Title of 1st sub-slide (2:1) ===== * (you get the idea)
[edit] Template: PDF format presentation
PDF files can be created from many applications, or by using a printer driver that creates PDF files. The most common application for creating presentations, though, use an application-specific format. Download the format of your choice (but don't forget to create PDF when you're done; uplaoding the base format itself is not acceptable):
- Template for OpenOffice.org Impress
- Template for Microsoft PowerPoint
