Session 4 of the Presentation Skills Series
“10 Truisms for Developing and Delivering Outstanding Presentations”
Love ’em or hate ’em, your basic didactic presentation isn’t going anywhere. If you’ve been asked to give a lecture or talk, or if you’re interested in improving talks that you have already developed, this session is for you. Dr. Green discussed 10 truisms that shape the development of outstanding academic presentations, with a focus on how to design presentation materials that facilitate learning. She covered how to communicate content, what visuals to include (or delete), and how to align your presentations with the particular requirements of virtual platforms.
