JMD 206 Module outline: Methodology of Tourism Ms Claire Fordred Today’s theme Learning how to do presentations Improving presentation styles https://ctl.wustl.edu/resources/improving-presentation-style-in- lectures/ Other points to cover Discuss how they will differ for each grade. What makes a good presentation. Discuss what resources do you use when designing presentation. What style do you have with your presenting skills. Presentation tips for teachers 1) Give Lots of Thought to Your Visual Aids Visual aids have a research-backed ability to decrease learning time, improve comprehension, and increase retention. They’re critical for teachers. Don’t simply add visuals as a quick after- thought. Be thoughtful about the ways movie clips, info graphics, and even GIFs can enhance the content. Keep in mind that entertainment value is just as important as a visual aid’s ability to support your argument. Students who are entertained will also retain your lessons. Presentation tips for teachers 2) Don’t Read from the Slides One of the biggest presentation mistakes teachers make is reading directly from the slides. Not only is this incredibly boring for anyone to sit through (child or adult) but it’s an ineffective way to teach. Do what you can to keep your slide content to a minimum. Let the visual do most of the legwork rather than the text. Research shows an audience learns 79% more from text less visuals. 3) Tell a Story Storytelling is one of many presentation tips used by speakers across all industries. Telling a story with your content will make your lesson more compelling. It’s a whole lot easier for your students to remember details from a story. Any set of data has a killer story to tell, it’s just a matter of finding it. If you’re struggling to come up with narratives, then recruit a presentation mentor to help you get the wheels turning. Presentation tips for teachers 4) Simplify Your Topics It’s easy to share a ton of details about a topic that you know everything about. It’s hard for your audience to understand it all. Edit your lessons down to one main idea per slide. Supporting points can be broken out across additional slides. Don’t worry about high slide counts. Worry about how easy your topic is for your audience to understand. 5) Keep Telling Them What They’re Learning All of our presentation tips revolve around our method: Tell your audience what you are going to say, say it, then tell them what you just said. This works well on student audiences. Introducing, delivering and reiterating a topic helps solidify it in the minds of any audience. This effective tip is found in nearly all high-quality presentations. Presentation tips for teachers 6) Include Plenty of Interaction No one wants to be talked at for any significant long time. Especially not students who are forced to stay seated for hours at a time. Don’t speak straight through your presentation without a little engagement. Use questions, role-playing and small group discussions to get students involved. This will make it easier for you to hold their attention. Presentation tips on audience engagement create excitement and interest in your deck. 7) Show Your Personality Set aside formality in favor of a more casual approach. Conversational speech will make you an effective teacher. Take time to get to know your students and their parents. Avoid using formal language that will make you appear distant. Crack a bad joke or two to make you more relatable and show some personality. Discuss how they will differ for each grade It's important that you tailor the style of voice, imagery and slide layout to be as relevant and engaging as possible for your specific audience. How can you connect with different audiences when presenting? Know your audience. Use appropriate language. Engage your audience. Use visuals and media. Adapt to the situation. Follow up with your audience. Here's what else to consider.

Presentation styles are the techniques a teacher uses when delivering a speech. The best style to choose for a presentation often varies depending on the subject you're discussing, your audience and the way you prefer to explain the subject matter. There are four basic methods of speech delivery: manuscript, memorized, impromptu, and extemporaneous.
