19. Activity 1: You have been asked to deliver a presentation for a group of colleagues on a topic that you are not familiar with but which falls within your vocational area. What are the 5-7 key things you do to plan prepare and deliver this presentation

20. Your thoughts…..

21. My story….In 1990-2000 I might have….. Gone to the library or my reference texts and sought out some chapters and content on the topic, talked to some colleagues and got their views. I would have looked up some images in clipart and maybe cut and pasted some images from magazines or photocopied some in black and white. I would have developed a series of overheads and written a presentation outline and ordered my thoughts and key points. I would have photocopied some handouts and got some props to use for the presentation. I might have developed some palm cards and rehearsed the presentation.

22. In 2008 I now….. I google and maybe wikipedia the key words in the topic, I click on my del.icio.us site and put in a keyword and I set up a PowerPoint template to put my initial thoughts and resources into. I go to flickr and source some useful images and trawl through you tube and slide- share to see what I can find in terms of content visuals statistics provocative statements and download cut and paste what I think is useful. Whatever I cone across I link to my delicious website and consider its value for my monthly student blog post or weekly announcement just in case it might be useful for these people

23. In 2008 I now….. I go to my delicious contacts and see what the gurus have linked to by doing a key word search around the topic to see what others have found and sourced that might be useful. I go to Google scholar/ industry network links and see if there are some research papers with references or links that might be useful for future trends or breaking issues on the topic I I go to a couple of blogs and type in some searches for content around the topic or links to blogrolls that might link me to other people and links of interest I then preview all the slides I have sourced and cut and paste content images and statistics to suit my presentation purpose. I finally ensure that I have a couple of activities that people can do to ensure that the presentation is interactive one of my favourite ones if Thiagi and he can be customised as the topic or presentation requires.

46. What did people say? The concept and format worked really well for me - the only change I'd make is to delete the links to online questionnaires that are so highly technical and specialised that they aren't applicable to the beginner or novice Web 2.0 user. I think it would be better to have something very simple so that participants can experience some success with their limited knowledge up front. Then when they are convinced how clever they already are, you can introduce them to more complex information - but definitely geared to the educational / creative user rather than the technical. Thanks for putting this together and for all the great links. I enjoyed being able to learn this way.
