Giving an oral presentation, is a very daunting concept. However in today's lecture, we were shown how to give a bad presentation in a video, which helped us identify what we should not do in our up coming presentations.
Things that we should not do in our presentation include:
- Talking in monotone - you should use emotion in presentation
- Do not put too much information into the PowerPoint
- Do not use distracting colours in your PowerPoint
- Do not talk to fast
- Do not use lots of animations in your PowerPoint - this can be distracting
- Don't be too vague with the topic you are presenting
- Do not turn up without looking the part - make sure your self image (the way you are dressed) and keep your body language positive
- Do not use PowerPoint as your sole means of delivery
- Do not use sounds and inappropriate pictures
- Do not stare at the ground when you are presenting
Tutorial
Top five strategies to give a great presentation
- Earn trust. An audience needs to trust a speaker to learn.
- Use visual aids so the audience doesn't get distracted by other things.
- Repeat important information so the audience remembers it.
- Be enthusiastic and use emotion to hold attention.
- Don't forget your manners. If you are in a formal situation when presenting, you need to keep your speech formal and the way you are referring to the audience.
