Split this deck into a presentation version and a document version. ***They are different documents.* **A deck that reads well alone is unreadable projected, and a deck that projects well is useless as a record.** **Most decks are neither because they try to be both.** 1. **Decide which this deck currently is**, ***and say so*** — **it is usually the document, being projected** 2. **For the presentation version:** - **What comes off** — ***anything the speaker says out loud*** - **What stays** — ***what has to be seen to be understood*** - **What gets bigger** - ***What becomes one slide instead of three, or three instead of one*** 3. **For the document version:** - **What has to be added** — ***everything the speaker would have said, written out*** - **What can be denser** — *a reader can re-read* - **What needs a note under it** so it survives without me 4. **What stays identical in both** — *the numbers, the conclusion* **Then:** - ***Which to send afterwards, and whether to send it before*** — **sending the document version in advance changes the meeting** - **What must not be in the version that gets forwarded** — ***it will be read by people who were not there and out of context*** ⚠️ ***Do not add content to either version that is not in what I gave you.*** **Where the deck is missing something the document version needs, say what to write rather than writing it.**
After pasting, fill in the fields at the bottom (My deck · Who gets the handout)
What this prompt does
A deck that reads well alone is unreadable projected, and one that projects well is useless as a record. Most are neither. This splits them and flags what must not be in the forwarded version.
