Oral Presentation Skills: Showcase Workshop

In this workshop, we’ll explore the topic of presentation effectiveness through examples (using rubrics to evaluate presentations) and through reflective presentation creation exercises (translating text into winning content).

Conventions

> Conventions (writing, layout, and timing)

  • Is your presentation free of errors in grammar, spelling, and usage? 
  • Did you edit your presentation carefully? Or are there sloppy errors?
  • Was the layout consistent and clean?
  • Was the text easy to read?
  • Are headings easily distinguished from the regular text?
  • BEST CASE: Your presentation is easy to read; text is free of errors.
  • WORST CASE: Your audience struggles to comprehend your presentation due to the grammar, spelling, usage, layout, and font choices.
