Presentation DELIVERY

ENTHUSIASM – YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!

•If you’re not enthusiastic about your subject, how can you expect the

audiences to be!!

•Consciously use your eyes and eyebrows to communicate enthusiasm

•Always keep a sparkle in your voice

•Fight boredom of repetitive sessions by introducing new anecdotes,

examples etc, or by changing lesson structure

Manipal K-12 Education 79


Presentation DELIVERY
USING YOUR VOICE
PROJECTION speak louder than usual; throw your voice to
back of room
ARTICULATION Don’t swallow words

MODULATION Vary tone and pitch; be dramatic, confident

PRONUNCIATION Watch tonic accents; check difficult words;

REPETITION Repeat key phrases with different vocal


emphasis
SPEED Use delivery speed to manipulate the audience;
fast delivery to excite and stimulate; slow
delivery to emphasize, dramatize and control

Manipal K-12 Education 80


Presentation DELIVERY
TIPS

• Don’t keep your eyes on your notes


• Never read anything except quotations
• If you’re not nervous there’s something wrong
• Pause often – silence is much longer for you than for
the audience
• Use humour ; a laugh is worth a thousand frowns!
• Be enthusiastic; if you’re not, why should they be?
• Don’t try and win the Nobel prize for technical accuracy
• KISS – Keep It Short and Simple!
Manipal K-12 Education 81
Presentation DELIVERY
YOU CAN’T COMMUNICATE
Research has shown that when someone gives a spoken message the
listener’s understanding and judgment of that message comes from:

7% Words - Words are only labels and listeners put their own
interpretation on speaker’s words

38% Paralinguistic – The way in which something is said (I.e. accent,


tone, inflection, etc) is very important to a listener’s understanding)

55% facial expressions – What a speaker looks like while delivering


message affects the listener’s understanding most

Research source – Albert Mehrabian

Research shows, communication is…

Manipal K-12 Education 83


Presentation DELIVERY

LIGHTHOUSE TECHNIQUE

Sweep the audience with your eyes, staying only 2-3 seconds on each
person – unless in dialogue

This will give each participant the impression that you are speaking to
him / her personally and ensure attention, in the same way as the
lighthouse keeps your awake by its regular sweeping flash of light. Above
all, avoid looking at one (friendly – looking) member of the audience or at
a fixed (non-threatening) point on the wall or floor.

Manipal K-12 Education 84


Presentation DELIVERY
FACILITATING DISCUSSION – ‘B’ ING

Here are 4 ways to keep a group discussion going:

• BUILDING Build on incomplete answers by adding own


comments and asking for agreement or
disagreement
• BOOSTING Support timid participants’ contributions, boost
their confidence and ask for extra comment
• BLOCKING Interrupt dominant / talkative / aggressive
participants by asking what others think
• BANTERING Establish non-threatening atmosphere by
engaging in friendly repartee with outgoing
participants

Manipal K-12 Education 85


Presentation DELIVERY

FACILITATING DISCUSSION – SOCRATIC DIRECTION

Take a tip from the Ancient Greeks.

If you wish to encourage audience participation to prove a point use


Socratic Direction

K now the answers you want

O pen questioning technique

P araphrase participants’ answers

S ummarize contributions (flip chart?)

A dd your own points

Manipal K-12 Education 86


Presentation DELIVERY
FACILITATING DISCUSSION – TEACHING TEMPO

Two factors will govern the tempo of your material coverage and
discussion periods:
1.The participants’ level of knowledge and general intelligence
• Low = slow
• High = fast
3.Your own teaching style
• Snappy / authoritarian/ directive = fast
• Relaxed, informal, facilitative = slow
How to change tempo
•Slower – Use more cases, examples, anecdotes; speak slower; ask
open questions
•Faster – Speak faster, use more directive tone; cut down discussions;
ask closed questions

Manipal K-12 Education 87


AUDIO VISUAL SUPPORT
FLIP TIPS – GRAPHICS
ATTRACTIVE

Manipal K-12 Education 88


AUDIO VISUAL SUPPORT
FLIP TIPS – GRAPHICS

attention disappear.
Since you can’t write and face the audience at the same time. You
should
