Learning Outcomes
While at university, you may be asked to deliver a presentation of your work. This could be as part of a group project or an individual assessment. Like a written essay or report, presentation assignments require planning and research to demonstrate your knowledge on a topic. Unlike your written assignments, the final output is communicated verbally and visually.
Delivering a presentation can be a daunting prospect for some but public speaking is a very useful skill to develop. With the right tools and giving yourself enough time to practice, you can develop the confidence to present your ideas to your peers, tutors and examiners.
This module will take you through the process of creating an effective presentation with a few tips for working in groups to create a joint presentation. By the end of this module you will know how to:
- Create a presentation that meets your brief and engages your audience
- Develop a narrative to communicate your key message within the time allocated for your presentation
- Design and build effective visual aids to support your verbal delivery
- Plan your speech and develop confidence to control your nerves
