ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates generally to equipment for organizing slide presentations and/or lectures such as binders as well as slide sleeves for holding slides and literature or handouts.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Slide presentations are frequently given wherein the person or group of people presenting the slide presentation is provided with information as well as slides. The person or group of people presenting the slide presentation must consider the information so as to prepare themselves for the presentation but must also remain organized keeping the slides in order and keeping notes, handout literature, etcetera on hand and in an organized matter.
Slide sleeves have been used in the past for protecting and holding slides. These sometimes have pockets formed of a plastic material whereby the slide may be slipped into the pocket for protecting the slide and for holding the slide. Such slide sleeves can be used along with a binder such as a three ring binder which holds one or more slide sleeve sheets. Typically one sheet can hold numerous slides.
Often presentations are made wherein the presentation is changed slightly, either from one day to the next or depending on the group which the presentation is being given to. It can be very difficult to change a slide presentation and change the notes and other material which are to be used by the presenter.
SUMMARY AND OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the invention to provide a slide sleeve and information kit which holds and maintains organized a plurality of slides and a plurality of cards containing information associated with each of the slides. Preferably indicia is provided which indicates the association between each slide and each card and wherein the cards and slides are maintained organized and held in the organized state.
It is another object of the invention to provide a system for presentations which includes a slide sleeve sheet with a plurality of slide sleeves and a lecture note pocket with a plurality of lecture notes wherein each lecture note has a number or other indicia corresponding to a number or other indicia on each slide and wherein a plurality of slide sleeve sheets are provided in a binder to facilitate slide presentations.
It is still another object of the invention to provide a method for facilitating slide presentations which includes using a sheet having a plurality of slide sleeves and a lecture note sleeve, providing a plurality of slides each with a number and providing a plurality of lecture note cards, each with a number and positioning the slides in an order in these sleeves and positioning the cards in an order, in the sleeve.
According to the invention, a slide presentation materials assembly is provided including a slide sleeve sheet with a plurality of slide pockets each sized to receive a slide and at least one additional pocket. A plurality of slides are provided with each slide having a border with indicia for identifying the slide. A plurality of lecture note cards are also provided with each lecture note card including indicia presenting information for correlating the note card with a particular slide, graphics/indicia corresponding to the graphics/indicia of the corresponding slide, and lecture notes for the corresponding slide.
The sheet is a preferably a plastic sheet formed of a base sheet and at least one sheet for forming pockets with respect to said base sheet. The sheet may have a fold over portion including another pocket. A sleeve insert may be inserted into the another pocket. The fold over portion may be folded over the other portion of the slide sleeve sheet. A ring binder may also be provided wherein the slide sleeve sheet includes holes for connection to the ring binder.
The invention also includes a slide presentation and organization method including providing a slide sleeve sheet with a plurality of slide pockets each for receiving a slide and another pocket which is larger than said slide receiving pockets, preparing a plurality of slides, each slide having graphics/indicia, placing indicia on a margin of each slide to distinguish one slide from another, preparing a plurality of lecture note cards, each lecture note card including indicia corresponding to the indicia on one of the slides and including lecture notes, positioning the slides such that each slide is in one of the slide pockets and positioning the lecture note cards in the another pocket.
The lecture note cards are printed to each have a printed portion corresponding to the indicia/graphics of the corresponding slide. The step of providing a slide sleeve sheet may include providing a base sheet and welding additional sheets to the base sheet to form the plurality of slide pockets each slide pocket being sized to receive a slide and to form the additional pocket.
The invention also includes a system of organizing slides and other material and making a presentation based on the organized slides and other material.
The various features of novelty which characterize the invention are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and specific objects attained by its uses, reference is made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter in which a preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated.
