Presenting...

Fellow speaker,

Before giving your presentation:
  • Why are you here? - what's the purpose of your presentation?
  • Cover the basics
  • Use simple examples
  • Use lots of images - a picture tells a thousand words
  • Do not read your equations - if you use equations in your presentati0n, tell what the equation is about but do not read out the entire equation (e.g., instead of reading out loud "A squared plus B squared equals C squared." simply say, "Here is the Pythagorean Theorem.")
Presentationally,

Tim
