\fontsize[16]It looks like this is the first time you've used Colloquium. This document will help you understand a little bit about how Colloquium works and how to use it.
Colloquium works differently to most other presentation programs. Instead of treating slides as the most important objects, Colloquium makes \italic{narrative }the centre of attention. Slides come when you need to illustrate something. This window is called the \oblique{narrative editor}. Your slides are embedded into the narrative text, like this:

\bp{}Write bullet-pointed notes to structure your talk.

If you have two screens connected to your computer at the moment, you could try a mock presentation now.
Besides this, Colloquium has some features which will help you when you come to give your presentation. In the "Tools" menu, you'll find the presentation clock and the test card.
Use the test card to make sure your computer is talking to the projector correctly. It shows you the resolution of the screen, where it thinks the edges are, and some colours. This helps you spot and fix all-too-common display problems early.
-Here's how the presentation clock works:
