Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
The place to start planning your presentation is with your goal – what do you want to achieve; and what do you need to be able to do that.
![Page 3: The use of PowerPoint in the classroom](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062712/55d37859bb61ebaa518b457b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
Ask yourself these questions:
1.Why am I speaking?
2.Whom am I speaking to?
3.What do they need from me?
4.How do I construct my message?
5.How do I deliver it?
![Page 4: The use of PowerPoint in the classroom](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062712/55d37859bb61ebaa518b457b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
It will be easier for you to decide what to say once you know:
Your primary objectives
Your secondary objectives
Your take home message and
Something about your audience

Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
your secondary objective should be to:
Inform Entertain Persuade Explore Sell Get support Influence behaviour Provoke feelings Motivate Arouse curiosity

Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
Consider your audience:What expedience do they have?
How well do they know you?
How do they feel about you?
Do they know your responsibilities and areas of expertise?
Are they likely to be resistant or apathetic?
What do they need from you?

Planning
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
Also consider:
Why should they listen to me?
How will they benefit from what I have to say?
What is the size and shape of the room?
What equipment will be available?

Tips for using PowerPoint
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
• Applying the PowerPoint templates to this nice, straightforward table yields an analytical disaster.
• The data explodes into six separate chaotic slides, consuming 2.9 times the area of the table.
• Everything is wrong with these smarmy, incoherent graphs: the encoded legends, the meaningless colour, the logo-type branding.
• They are uncomparative, indifferent to content and evidence, and so data-starved as to be almost pointless.
• Chartjunk is a clear sign of statistical stupidity.

USING TABLES
DVC: Teaching Learning and Technology
Knowledge If we include too much content in a table, it will also lead to confusion.
Comprehension We do not want students to spend time on reading full sentences. We only want to highlight specific issues
Application When the content is applied, it relates to the application in a specific context
