To make it as useful as possible, consider it's current and future purpose. For example, 'current' as somewhere to jot some notes during the session; and 'future' to apply the models in the real world and to provide participants with a reminder of the key points.PowerPoint has a Handouts function. It is great for keeping track of your slides, but not great as a handout unless you are very short on time to prepare handouts, and handouts must be provided. The ones that are available vary from 2 to a page, as shown on the right.
... to 9 per page, as shown to the left.
I suggest that a useful handout provides key content; provides your contact details; cross-references other useful resources; and is easy to read. I do these in Word, rather than PowerPoint. As shown below.
Be considerate of your readers when creating handouts. Provide a useful summary, and references for further reading if you can. If you are setting homework, don't forget to list it on the handout too.
