Tips:
Please follow these instructions to make PowerPoint presentations that do not cause problems on the Kigaku PC:

1. Slides should be created in 4:3 format (16:9 slides will be scaled down due to VGA output on the Kigaku PC).
2. Do not use unfamiliar fonts, etc. (There is a high possibility of text collapse).
3. It is strongly recommended not to use animations or screen switching (zoom will put a lot of strain on the screen).

Audience

• How to watch the oral presentation?

1. Face-to-face viewing at D201: Only faculty members will be allowed on this occasion to view oral presentations at D201. When you enter D201, please wash your hands using an alcohol for disinfection and wear a mask.
2. Viewing using zoom: Switch off your camera. ”Mute” your microphone except when asking questions. Use “Raise Hand” option instead of using “Chat” for asking questions.
