Mike Markel's Web Design Tutorial
SECTION 2D: Create Informative Headings and Footers
  
To help your audience understand each slide, write meaningful headings at the top of each slide. Headings should be written in short, informative phrases and should be displayed in large 30–40-point size. If information continues onto another slide, be sure to add a "cont'd" notation in the heading of subsequent slides.

Footers provide additional context for audiences. They also help you organize and annotate your slides by providing the date and name of the presentation, as well as the number of the slide. Slide numbers make it easy for an audience member to ask a question about a particular slide.

Example
The heading of this slide introduces the slide's content. The footer displays the organization responsible for the presentation, the presentation title, the date, and the slide number.
