Summary/Abstract: The presentation: ‘Evolution of landowners’ approach to marriage in the 19th century according to the guidance literature and Ego-documents’ was created for the ‘The art of public speaking’ course. The aim was to prepare participants for speaking in public, which is an integral part of any scientist's work. One of the challenges the group faced during the weekly meetings was to develop a valuable multimedia presentation to complement the public speech. A month passed from the time of making the first version of the author’s slides to presentation of its final version in class. The file in both cases was similar, which is a consequence of the use of a presentation template prepared for the faculty with which the author is associated. Although the concept of the speech has remained the same, and the multimedia presentation has not undergone radical changes, the comparison of both files, which the author makes in the article, shows how it evolved under the influence of valuable comments and advice. The analyzed material is grouped into three subchapters. The first of them concerns serious faults, the second focuses on shortcomings of minor importance, which still make the presentation less visually attractive. In the last group, the author lists those features of the document that she had not paid attention to before, and therefore they were not included in the first version of the multimedia presentation
