Looking at your 2 explanations, I don't think you undestand leveling&sharpening.

Leveling is defined by unification, enhancements of symmetry, reduction of structural features, repetition, dropping of non-fitting detail, and elimination of obliqueness (by the observer, in order to perceive).
Sharpening enhances difference and emphasizes obliqueness.

In your example of continuity, that was actually a spiral.

I didn't understand your second explanation, because that image was creating an 8, if you unified white and black figures for being so close to eachother.

You have to be careful with how you build phrases. In some cases you make yourself very difficult to understand.

Those explanations are not working:
Second one for Closure (the image is just framed different).
Second one for Similarity (there is ONE different one, he is not "messed up").
Second one for Leveling/Sharpening (there is a wine bottle, not a wine glass. You don't explain why is sharpened)

The points you have worked on turned out beautiful. Sometimes is a bit hard to follow, but it is put together in an intelligent way.

You have concentrated the text in 2 or 3 slides, the rest are just illustration-slides.

I specifically talk about not creating slides that were just literally-illustrating a word.

 Your "text" slides are big chunks of text that cover several issues. The text should have been broken into several slides with images.
The sad thing is that some of those slides exist, and you left them with no content.

Concepts are presented with a shallow perspective.
Several slides contain just generic pictures with no more thought.
No talk about data, which is a major point in Hot and Cold media theory.

Sometimes the examples made the concepts seem superficial.

Some concepts were a little bit unclear.

There isn't enough content.

Good design.
Good use of short phrases.
Sometimes phrases are not grammatically complete.
Some concepts are left at a very superficial level because of excessive simplification.
