Week 7: Clear

This week we learned about presentations. After completing the necessary reading and presentations we were suppose to succesfully be able to do the following:

• identify elements of effective presentations in a multiple-choice quiz
• recall principles of storyboarding, visualizing information, layout principles and making presentation ideas stick in a multiple-choice quiz
• select an appropriate topic for presentation based on a given set of criteria
• practice and apply correct principles of developing effective presentations
• critique your own presentation and peer presentations based on a set of given criteria for effective presentations

As a public relations student, it is very important to understand the concepts of effective presenting. In doing research to explain the concepts behind great presentations, I came across this video: Effective Presentation.

It highlights the ways in which a someone should go about giving a great presentation and getting others to clearly and efectively understand their concepts.

Sometime's it can be scary or even intimidating for some people to do presentations, but it takes time to practice this craft and become a great presenter of a concept. Nothing happends overnight. Practice and patience are the key elements to mastering this craft.
