TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL
PRESENTATIONS
Preparation
-
Practice your presentation and know your
subject well.
-
Prepare handouts for your audience that
highlight the main points of your presentation.
Format
-
Think “multi-media!” Use a variety of
formats, including video images, slides, overheads, computer graphics, 3-D
models, and 2-D presentation boards. Plan carefully to make sure you have all
of the equipment you need.
-
Use materials such as poster board, markers,
colored paper, and cardboard to prepare “professional style” presentation
boards.
Standards
-
Set high standards for your presentation;
check all written work for grammar and spelling errors; create a clear graphic
layout; and thoroughly label all products and exhibition board.
-
Ask your Mentor to review the materials
before your presentation.
Speech Organization
-
Introduction: Introduce your topic and try
to capture the audience’s attention.
-
Body: List and explain four key points that
you want to make:
-
Point 1: How did you become interested in
the topic?
-
Point 2: What did you learn from the
research?
-
Point 3: What did you learn from the
Project?
-
Point 4: What did you learn about yourself
and how has this information affected your plans for the future?
-
Connect the introduction, learning, and
possible plans for the future.
