Presentation Transcript

  1. Preparing a Handout Or, getting your audience to see the important points clearly!

  2. You Goal • For the last 10% of your grade, you will give a short presentation over your argument of a definition. You will have a total of seven minutes to complete this task. Five minutes will be devoted to your argument, and the last two will be for questions from your classmates.

  3. Goal Two • You will need some visual representation for this presentation, so do not plan to stand in front of the class and read your paper. The visual can be a PowerPoint, Prezi, puppet show, or some other medium to capture the attention of your audience. You will also prepare a handout with the most important points from your argument with at least on image.

  4. Constructing the Presentation • When selecting your presentation medium, keep in mind the type of information your are discussing. • Prezi looks fun and exciting, but may not be the best when displaying numerous info-graphs (but I’m always willing to be surprised!) • Also remember your time limit!

  5. Putting the Pieces Together • Ultimately, you want the presentation to keep your audience engaged but give a clear picture of your argument.

  6. Designing the Handout • The handout should be a memento of your presentation for your peers and myself. • But how do you create a handout that is both impactful and easy to read…… • Glad you asked!

  7. Where to Put Your Stuff • You want to engage your audience with clearly marked visuals and text. • Start with a focal point

  8. A Focal Point…. • Captures the attention right away. • It is usually a visual. • Could be an interesting photograph, strong colors, or shapes.

  9. Where to put the Focal Point • The golden proportion • It’s a universal visual aesthetic

  10. Where do you Put the Other Things? • Once your focal point is placed, you must direct your viewers to the next important item which is the text • Let the grid or grid lines direct your copy

  11. Type Tips • Keep the headline and lead together • Set copy in columns to keep long copy reader-friendly • Avoid fully justified or centered type • Watch for inelegant breaks in headlines or legs of type

  12. Avoid lone words at the top or bottom of columns! • Et erum in recatelic tem. Itasinctiumhillest, ommoloeumreporenihicidipsumvini sit am quo voluptae ma. • Don’t do this!

  13. More Tips, Tricks, and Fun! • Place visuals near the top. • Look for directions in your picture and align them correctly. • Don’t Flip photos! • Don’t interrupt the flow of reading!
