Illustrated Presentations

I am down do present a talk to my local history group. I have done presentations in the past but they had not been designed to fit into a specific time frame. The time allocated for talks is 45 minutes. I have read that the average adult can say approximately 183 words a minute. By my calculations, that works out at roughly 8000 words over 45 minutes.

Does anyone have any experience to know if that makes sense. Any help or advice would be appreciated

Don't stuff your presentation.

I have seen ppl make slides which are crammed full and are unclear.

Make a nice logical / story progressionnand let ppl ask questions--if they do, give them more. If they don't, don't worry.
