Hot Tip - Planning a Presentation
Oral presentations give many of us sweaty palms and a sense of unease; yet they are a requirement of many college classes. Use these tips to help you deliver a calm, effective oral presentation.
- Be clear about the assignment and related requirements.
- Is there a specified topic or topic list?
- What is the required length of the presentation?
- Are you expected to use audio-visuals?
- Will you be able to use notes or other prompts?
- Know your topic. Be certain that you can define and pronounce words that you will use in your presentation.
- Focus on a manageable topic. Its difficult to present well on a broad topic such as Global Warming. However, you may be more successful on a narrow topic such as The Effects of Global Warming on Heat Zones and Gardening.
- Rehearse this means practicing the entire presentation aloud.
- Reviewing your notes is a good start, but you will greatly increase your chances for success if you actually practice the entire presentation aloud.
- Before the start of the presentation, breathe. A few deep breaths will help calm you.
- If you need to present statistics or numbers, make the presentation visual so that people can literally see what you mean. PowerPoint, a handout, or even the use of a flip chart or blackboard can help you communicate numbers visually.
- Keep your focus on the audience.
- Consider how you can make the presentation interesting for them.
- Think of your presentation as a story you are telling the audience. Youll need an opening, the main points, and a closing or conclusion.
