Presentation skills can be developed by taking personal initiative and efforts.presentation skills including communication and soft skills are such skills which is neither spontaneous nor can be cultivated by faculty.it has to developed by taking personal intiative.

Dear All,

I am little bit deviating with the view point to not to use power point. As per communication skills line, adding proper visual to your presentation enhance understanding of audience and reduces your efforts to express. Simultaneously, It gives more time to directly interact with audience instead of putting your back to the audience and giving them chance to disconnect.

it is also believe that the reception of audience is very poor when there are less things in visual. I will say we may reduce number of slides in order to put right content, But it enhances way of communication untill unless we are not dealing with basic concepts of mathmatics.

In the past have always adopted the power point route. Suffice to say I agree that this is now fast becoming 2 “old hat”. Have to admit that most of the presentations I have attended I have not really listenend after the second slide.white board is the way forward methinks!!! Thanks for the tips, will certainly be utilising for my next bout of tenders

Hi,

I would strongly agree with your suggestions too. I encourage participants to use white board as much as possible this not only helps them interact with the audience but also builds on to their confidence.

Warm Regards,

Sunita

I am really enjoying the site and gaining a lot of valuable insight. I have a reached the final 6 in a competition to win a shop rent and rate free for the first year and free marketing and advertising package.
I intend to open the shop as a cupcakery and bakery downstairs and bespoke specialist cake studio upstairs.
In order to win each finalist has to deliver a 15 minute presentation followed by 15min QandA session. I have never used powerpoint before and the last time i did a presentation was 10 years ago at college, would it be fruitless to use ppt for a short pitch such as this.
I want to showcase pictures of the bespoke cakes, possibly screen grabs of my website and provide samples of the small cakes, would I be better off providing handouts with business cards attached and talking about the business with a flipchart used for any diagrams.
Or go for a power point presentation?
Any advice would be gratefully received
Many Thanks

Things have gone far too ahead in presentation skills….no body seems to have understood the importance of ‘educational technology’ and its relevant use in teaching learning..Having worked in several universities abroad, I find that, these technologies not only addvalue in the learning process but also enhance the teaching competencies of a lecturer. There are many lecturers who use the ‘talk,chalk and board’ methods of teaching and I have found that most of their results are poor. As an advocate of using technology, I strongly recommend the use of poweer point…but could be minimised and relate concepts based on ‘experiential learning’. Cheers to all those who have left their comments
