Using the principles of design when creating a presentation assists the learners to better comprehend the presented materials. The coherence principle’s focus is to keep the presentation simple, uncluttered and to support the main instructional goals. The contiguity principle states to organize and place an object next to the text it refers helps the learner to make connections and experience deeper learning.
