How to give a good oral presentation

We want the attention of the audience so we focus on:

  • What you say » what makes a good story? The Three Act structure: setup, confrontation and resolution

    • Act 1: exposition (introducing the topic and discussing the relevance of the topic » discuss the problem statement and define the research question)
    • Act 2: rising action (discuss your methods and analysis, discuss your results)
    • Act 3: falling action (discuss what the results mean)
  • How do you say it » who is your audience?
    • Presenting is adapting to the audience and situation.
    • Presenting is attention management » how do you keep the attention of the audience on you?
      • Tempo
      • Intonation (variety in intonation)
      • Emphasis (intonation or gestures)
      • Pauses
      • Articulation
      • Words (adapting your words to your audience) » always use the easiest words)
      • Facial expression (show enthusiasm)
      • Posture
      • Gestures
      • Movement
      • Clothes (professional)
      • Eye contact (most important thing you can do with your body) » if you don’t make eye contact you lose attention of your audience
  • Visual aids
    • Don’t use too much text on your slides » only one message per slide
    • Use attention snatchers:
      • Movement (one of the most important attention snatchers) » don’t use to much movement or it will  be distracting
      • Signal colors
      • High contrast
