3 Presentation Basics All good presentations can be broken up into three parts: Physical Message – how the speaker looks Visual Message – how the presentation looks (PPT, poster, etc.) Story Message – how the information in the presentation is presented All presentations that are good have a combination of these factors There is never a single “right way” to give a presentation. Each person should develop his or her own style.

Physical Message S m o o t h n e s s L o u d n e s s E x p r e s s i o n E y e C o n t a c t P o s t u r e What are they? Why are these important?

6 Visual Message is how the presentation looks like
PPT – many good presentations come with good PPTs. Here are tips for good visual message: Is all the important information on the PPT? Is there too much information? Not enough? Is the PPT to bland (boring)? Too busy (too many colors or animations)? Is the information in order? Does the PPT make your presentation better or distract the audience?

7 Story Message Even if a speaker has good posture and the PPT is attractive, a bad story message can ruin a presentation. Story Message is the way the information is presented Structure Does your presentation have a beginning, middle, and end? Does your presentation come directly to the point quick enough? Flow Do your ideas naturally go from one point to the next? Clarity Can the audience clearly understand your language and meaning? Are you using the right vocabulary? Types of Questions Display Questions – How’s the weather today? Requires agreement/disagreement or response Referential Questions Questions that don’t require an answer

8 Flow of Message – Cultural Impact
Culture affects how individuals think and reason Western and Asian culture have differences in presentation styles Indirectly Approaches Main Idea Directly Approaches Main Idea with Examples

9 Useful Vocabulary to Share Message
Western presentations and papers follow a very strict structure (sandwich idea) Introduction – main point is presented Body – main information is presented in detail here Point One Point Two Point Three… Conclusion – summary of main points and implications How does this affect the audience? The handout provided by the professor gives useful phrases for clarifying your Message Story

10 What is an Option Presentation?
Option Presentation – presenting a closed amount of options for the audience to decide for themselves The presenter needs to present the options to a question by clearly and without bias What are the merits (positive things – also called “pros”)? What are the demerits (negative things – also called “cons”)? How can you effectively share these with the audience? (ranking, stars, etc.) Option presentations are all about showing the audience a clear way to make a decision

11 In groups, consider each other’s evaluations.
Video Analysis What did you think of the video? Complete the rubric about the presentations. In groups, consider each other’s evaluations. Step One: Combine all of your evaluations together and write an assessment of each presentation. Consider why you think that way. Give evidence. Specifically point out how the presenter changed his behavior and presentation to make the second presentation better. Present your findings to the class.

12 How to effectively present an Option Presentation
STEP ONE: Choose your topic Choose a topic that is relevant to society today Choose a topic that has a meaningful impact STEP TWO: Consider your audience What kind of things would your audience like to do? If you are talking to older people, do you think they would like to hear a presentation about which club to party at? STEP THREE: Choose your options Three options is usually good Choose options that you think would be relevant to your audience STEP FOUR: Choose an evaluation criteria Choose a way to evaluate all options fairly (how will you rank them?) Make sure that the criteria is equally applicable (it applies to all options) STEP FIVE: Make your presentation!

13 Option Presentation Example – Airline Carriers
What are some examples of famous airline carriers? What criteria should we use? Jin Air Delta Korean Air Jeju Air Asiana Airlines Lufthansa Fiji Airways American Airlines Cathay T’way Air Cost Things To Do Service Seat Comfort Safety Company History Places They Go

14 Group Practice Get in groups of two.
Consider all we have learned in class and create your own option presentation. Get in groups of two. In your groups, consider a topic that we have not yet talked about in class. This topic has to be an “optional” question. Map out the question and three options as possible answers. Determine the criteria to evaluate these options. Then evaluate each option based on that criteria. Create an outline. Copy the material for each member and rotate around the room sharing your option presentation.

15 Option Presentation Assignment
Imagine you will be presenting options on __________________. Be sure to give the audience the three best options, present the merits and demerits (pros and cons) of each option, and then summarize the options at the end of the presentation. The presentation topics you can choose are: Vacation places News sources Mode of reading – electronics or paper University courses Type of residence in college Make sure that your presentation is or has all of the following: 3-4 minutes long An attractive and clear PPT Memorized (emergency notes are ok, but holding notes affects your posture, and reading from notes will result in a low grade)
