         - It is a stand alone presentation that includes information, presented with slides, video or digital presentation and includes sound. 

Using Traditional Visual and Audio Media 

  • Overhead Transparencies - Transparencies are clear acetate pages displayed by an overhead projector during a speech. 
  • Flip Chart- a large pad paper that rest on an easel allowing the speaker to record. 
  • White board/chalk board- these materials can also help you achieve the same outcome. 
  • Document Camera- is a projector device.
  • Video- showing a video clip can elicit an emotional response from the audience. 
  • Handouts- are sheet of paper containing relevant information that some speakers use in conjunction with other presentation media. 
  • Sound recordings- sounds, like visual images can stimulate mental images triggering the imagination and setting mood. 
Using Computer Technology 
  • Digital Slides - a presentation software commonly using PowerPoint. It allows computer users to display information in multimedia presentation. 
  • Real- Time Web Access - use to demonstrate how to do something special on the web such as researching an ideas. 

Strategies Using Tools of Technology:
  • Keep it simple
  • Emphasize your key ideas
  • Show what you can't say

PowerPoint Presentation Tips:
  1. Go for creativity- create your own design, try different combination and let your creativity flow.
  2. Colors are nice - flat colors are beautiful and contrast is your friend.
  3. Use good fonts - Comic Sans and Georgia will do.
  4. Text is evil- use the 10-20-30 rule, too many text will catch the attention of the audience from you.
  5. Images say more than a thousand words- make the images more powerful.
  6. Big is beautiful- think big, think bold.

Tips in using Presentation Media: 
  • Practice with your Media. 
  • Consider your room and audience.
  • Speak to your audience not your media. 

Always Remember this: 
  • 10 - 20 - 30 - 10 Slides, 20 Minutes, 30 Font Size 
  • 1 - 6 - 6 - 1 Main Idea, 6 Bullets point, 6 Words per Bullet.
  • 7 - 7 - 7 Lines , 7 Words. 
  • 9Ps - Prior Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance of the Person Putting on the Presentation.
