      This is one of my most valued attributes in a speaker.

      I love my radio wave air mouse.

      A smile can be a GREAT thing for the presenter too.

  • If you press the “B” key while your PowerPoint or Keynote slide is showing, the screen will go blank. This is useful if you need to digress or move off the topic presented on the slide.

      I had forgotten about this tool.  I am going to use it again.
  • Keep the lights on

      I tried to use dark backgrounds contrasted to light backgrounds in my final presentation so I could see the difference on how they project.

  • Your slides should have plenty of “white space” or “negative space.” Do not feel compelled to fill empty areas on your slide with your logo or other unnecessary graphics or text boxes that do not contribute to better understanding. The less clutter you have on your slide, the more powerful your visual message will become.

      I like the idea of having contrast and white space.
  • This slide is not unusual, but it is not a visual aid,it is more like an “eye chart.”
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 18 Nov 14
       
      My draft looked very much like this "eye chart".
  • Sans-Serif

      I could not find this option on my document to use.  Is there a trick to it?  It is not under my S drop down menu.

  • Use video and audio when appropriate.
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 18 Nov 14
       
      I still need to figure out how to download the video links so I am not dependent on the internet and jumping in and out of the presentation with links as I find this distracting.
  • logical flow

      I love the sorter method.  It really helps you see the flow.

  • weller means is that the way PowerPoint is used should be ditched, not the tool
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      I agree.  I don't think power point is the problem.  It is a user problem.  I have seen some powerful presentation and some lame ones that use power point as the tool.
  • it is not effective to speak the same words that are written, because it is putting too much load on the mind and decreases your ability to understand what is being presented."
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      This is a common mistake that I observe in new instructors that don't know their materials...they read the slides and put too much data on them.
  • Research shows that visuals (animation) plus concise, simultaneous narration is better than just narration alone. When it comes to the issue of projected text on a screen and narration, Mayer draws this conclusion:

      It helps me see and hear what the instructor is saying.  I have a visual to anchor to.

  • bulleted-list templates found in both PowerPoint and Keynote.

      Bullets are a distraction in power point.
  • if your presentation visuals taken in the aggregate (e.g., your “PowerPoint deck”) can be perfectly and completely understood without your narration, then it begs the question: why are you there?
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      This is what bugs me about organizations requiring me to turn in my power point in advance.  If I were doing it like it is suggested in this article, it would be worthless to the audience.  I want to make a visual power point and give a hand out that the audience could find facts on.

  • What is the purpose of the event?
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 09 Nov 14
       
      I think this is great advise.  Every presentation needs to be designed to meet the needs of the audience.
  • A data dump
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 09 Nov 14
       
      Data dump has been a problem for many presentations that I attend and many presentations that I have facilitated myself.  I am going to be much more aware of this.
  • If your audience could remember only three things about your presentation,what would you want it to be?
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 09 Nov 14
       
      I love this advise.  I am going to apply this in my next presentation.
    • tamela hatcher

      I am going to do this activity and the elevator test in the next presentation I work on.  This is great advice.

      This is very similar to what the book, "Talk like Ted" stated.  This is also something that I need to focus on.
  • often personal ones.
  • Good presentations include stories.
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 09 Nov 14
       
      Some of the best presenter I have heard, have this key concept mastered.  Good presenters and also good story tellers.

      I put all 5 of my sticky notes within this article as I could not get them to work in the Planning or other articles.  I am not sure what I was doing wrong but when I would try to add a sticky note, it would kick me out of the article.  Does anyone have suggestions as to why I could not get that to work but COULD get diigo to work within this article?
  • Find out everything you can about the location and logistics of the venue.
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      This is really important. I presented recently at an international conference.  I arrived to find that the meeting room did not have sound and there was not an air mouse/laser available. Language was also a barrier.  I decided that morning to use power point of pictures scrolling as a background and ditch the presentation I had worked so hard on.  The pictures told the story and people tweeted their questions and someone translated for me and I answered.  It was not best practice and yet it worked.  I really had to water down the content to the very basics which did challenge me and energize me.
  • presenter crams too much information into the talk
  • A data dump
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      I have been guilty of this for so many years!  This is what I want to work on...simple, simple, simple. I also want to consider the document concept vs the power point usage.
  • Could you sell your idea in the elevator ride
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      This is similar to what I read in "Ted Talk". It really makes sense.
  • sharing a story
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      This is why I believe Ted Talks work so effectively.  They are short and power point is not the focus but a tool to deliver the message.
  • nervous
    • tamela hatcher
      tamela hatcher on 11 Nov 14
       
      Sometimes nerves can add to the energy level of the presenter.  I can see a passion and excitement and know if the person speaks from the heart, I will get the message.  A little nervousness is a good thing in my mind.  It is a big responsibility to be given a large number of people and 30 to 90 minutes of their time.

      Moodle_iowa must be tagged to get full credit.  You must also search ollie iowa and join the group before the drop down menu will give you any other option but "private".

      Tamela is able to respond to notes already posted but not able to post original thread.  I am logged in and can see everyone's notes.  I have changed the dropdown menu to Ollie_Iowa.  What am I doing wrong?

      I think it finally worked.  I am not sure what I did differently!  This brings me to #7...it is so important to experience online learning from the perspective of a student :)

      Just like face to face learning, online teachers need to remember to provide opportunities that enable student self-assessment.

      It is important we select and use technology appropriately with the content and not get caught up in the bells and whistles.  I have been to classes where they used Power Point and had every icon flying in with a different sound...annoying.
