Keep presentations simple with minimal words and clutter on slides. High quality photos can make the presentation more interesting if cited properly. Choose colors carefully so text remains visible. Practice your presentation beforehand and speak with confidence while maintaining eye contact with the audience. Finally, have pride in your accomplishments after presenting.
Presentations: Advanced techniques
The document discusses advanced presentation techniques including rhetorical questions, dramatic contrasts, tripling, machine gunning, build-ups, knock-downs, simplification, and creating rapport. Rhetorical questions are presented as a way to make a talk more interesting and conversational. Dramatic contrasts use strongly opposing ideas to reinforce a point. Tripling and machine gunning involve presenting points in sets of three or more for memorability. Build-ups and knock-downs are techniques for emphasizing conclusions. Simplification recommends making messages as simple as possible for impact. Creating rapport involves using inclusive language and a conversational tone.

Arrive a few minutes early to an exam to avoid rushing in or having too much time to worry. During reading time, allocate your time to questions based on their marks and read questions thoroughly to understand what is being asked. Resist spending too much time on one question. When writing, make brief plans and note key details to check over your work later. Take breaks between sections by stretching or clearing your mind with grounding exercises to stay focused. After the exam, focus on what went well rather than mistakes, as the exam cannot be changed.

This document criticizes the overuse of PowerPoint presentations, arguing that they are ineffective ways to communicate ideas. It claims that PowerPoint encourages presenters to be unsure of their message and rely too heavily on bullet points and graphs instead of clearly articulating their ideas.

An outline is important to map out your main points and supporting details. Your slides should correspond to what you will say and be organized to keep the audience engaged throughout. Proper preparation includes practicing with the technology to ensure smooth delivery.

1) The document provides tips for creating an effective presentation, including conducting thorough research on the topic, outlining main points, and structuring the presentation in a clear way.
2) It recommends starting with an engaging "hook" to interest the audience, including 3-5 facts or details on each slide, and repeating key points to help audience remember.
3) Presentations should have a strong conclusion that recaps main ideas and allows time for questions.
Starting a PPT
To summarize the key steps for starting a PowerPoint presentation:
1) Decide on a layout by separating the presentation into categories, with each category getting its own slide.
2) Keep the text on each slide simple and concise as talking points rather than paragraphs.
3) Use backgrounds sparingly as too much color or design can distract from the presentation.
4) Include some graphics to enhance slides but not on every slide to avoid distraction.
5) Be sure to always cite any sources used on the slides.
