  • thank them

      I've listened to handful of speakers lately who keep saying, "That is a great question." They have done it so many times within the same presentation that it seems not as genuine as I think they truly intend it to be.
  • to tune out after about 10 minutes, Gallo says, based on expert opinion and research in cognitive functions. So keep the presentation to less than 20 minutes.

      Good thing to keep in mind
  • Gallo's Tip

      Great solution for when release pd time for teachers is very fixed (can only be out a a training a full day; not a 20 minute meeting every day)

  • We know through research that 93 percent of the impression you leave on somebody has little to do with content and everything to do with body language and verbal ability—how you talk, sound, look and what you're wearing," Gallo says. "Only about 7 percent of the actual words or content is important."

      Feel like I should read more about body language while presenting now....

  • ever turn your back on the audience and read text from the slide word for word.
    • debraschindler
       
      This always drives me nuts when I see presenters do this
  • And this is even better…
    • debraschindler
       
      I would have never thought to do this but it does create a last image in your mind and as a presenter you know what its referring to so there wouldn't be the 'reading from the slide' effect

      I have actually seen the presentation below and as a viewer thought of how well-done it was.

  • Highlight the key phrases that you will help you rehearse for your presentation
    • debraschindler
       
      The bolding/highlighting key text really does improve the quality of the slide
  • Depending on your content, you may be able to convert each bullet point into a separate image
    • debraschindler
       
      This is really interesting approach and I'm wanting to try it out in the near future. It easily keeps the audience engaged as they see images but are waiting to hear the connection/content

  • whiteboard
    • debraschindler
       
      I like the whiteboard but I prefer paper. Whiteboard is too easy to erase and sometimes what I thought was a bad idea later on turns into a great one. If its on paper then it's easier to see what I dismissed earlier.
  • Dakara nani? (so what?)
    • debraschindler
       
      I like this because it also prepares you for the disgruntled or negative nancy audience member that is trying to pick holes in your presentation.
  • Humans are predisposed to remembering experiences in the narrative form; we learn best with a narrative structure.

  • What makes life interesting is “the dark side” and the struggle to overcome the negatives—struggling against negative powers is what forces us to live more deeply,
    • debraschindler
       
      Is this why America is obsessed with reality tv? There's always conflict & a dark side filled with emotion.
  • normal human being cannot comprehend more than ten concepts in a meeting

  • The best way to do that is to pose questions or open holes in people’s knowledge and then fill those holes.
  • kill two birds with one stone”

      I tend to use a lot of idioms when I speak; I have found most people gravitate towards it and respond positively and while some just look at me like I said something crazy.

      When I think of myself as a presenter of information/knowledge to students I am very good at providing SUCCESS; my current struggle is finding my stride at SUCCESS for adult learners. D. Schindler

  • because deep down, we all want to be sold
    • debraschindler
       
      Ain't that the truth! My boss and I have similar if not the same theories on educational practices. She has a way of 'selling' her audience that even when she and I are saying the exact same thing our teachers walk away with much more buy-in after she has spoken.
  • Instead of giving me four bullet points of EPA data, why not read me the stats but show me a photo of a bunch of dead birds, some smog and even a diseased lung? This is cheating! It’s unfair! It works.

      This would sends a strong message and would be a very influential. That one slide fits the entire SUCCESS model (simple, unexpected, concrete, credible, emotional, and a story) - D. Schindler
  • these slides i

      I LOVE the visual of these slides. I will definitely be using these to evaluate my work.
