This study endeavored to determine the technical and educational principles of slide design in PowerPoint as the common tool for presenting content in medical education.

Methods: This qualitative study includes two stages: Systematic search and Delphi technique. In the first stage, a search was made in internal and external databases with relevant keywords to obtain the educational and technical principles available in the sources, and the findings were collected, categorized, and analyzed in a questionnaire to conduct Delphi. In the second stage, with the Delphi method throughout the two rounds, the educational and technical principles of slide design in PowerPoint were determined by experts and students in the fields of medical education, health education and health promotion, educational technology, e-learning, intelligence education, educational management and computer science.

Results: In the first stage, the result of search in internal and external sources with related keywords was 974 studies, after the initial review and removing redundancies or unrelated items based on the inclusion criteria, 60 studies were examined and finally 29 studies were included in the research. The questionnaire of the first round of Delphi had 49 items, which were modified based on the opinions of 18 experts, including 13 professors and five students. The result of the second round of Delphi was a list of 47 items regarding technical features (22 items) and educational principles of slides, including the nature and types of slides (9 items), content design strategies(9 items), and presentation strategies (7 items).
