Study Notes

Presentations

  • A presentation should have a clear structure: a beginning to hook the audience, a middle to provide most of the information, and an end to leave a lasting impression.
  • The beginning should grab the audience's attention, the middle should provide accurate and interesting information, and the end should leave them with something to remember.

Facts & Details

  • Ensure the information presented is accurate and true.
  • Verify facts if they seem unreasonable or inaccurate.
  • Add interesting details to engage the audience and make the presentation entertaining.
  • Include unusual or surprising facts to grab attention.

Speaking Clearly & Accurately

  • Speak at a good pace, neither too fast nor too slow.
  • Practice speaking to find a comfortable pace.
  • Speak loudly enough for the entire audience to hear.
  • Practice speaking in front of a mirror to improve delivery.

  • Make eye contact with the audience.
  • Use expression to convey excitement or seriousness.
  • Use gestures to emphasize important points.
  • Avoid overwhelming the audience with too much information.
