?Presentation
Rubric
?In a professional
career, one may be called upon to conduct research and deliver findings in
professional settings. No matter how extensive the research or accurate the
conclusions, a weak presentation can undermine an argument. A presentation is a
tool to assist in making an argument. When creating presentations, students
develop skills in researching an issue, synthesizing the information,
organizing data logically, and presenting findings in an effective manner.
?Principles
of an Effective Presentation:
?· You
may utilize a product such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint or Google Presentation to
create your presentation.
?· There
are various template designs that you can find on the web for your
presentation. However, first consider your presentation from the perspective of
your audience prior to selecting a specific style. Distracting backgrounds,
large blocks of text, all uppercase fonts, elaborate font styles, grammatical
errors, and misspellings are distracting. Be consistent with the style of text,
bullets, and sub-points in order to support a powerful presentation that allows
your content to be the focus.
?· Each
slide should include your key point(s). Do not place large blocks of text on
the visual. Your presentation is not a means of presenting a short paper. In an
actual presentation you would not “read” from your slides but rather use them
as prompts.
?· Any
notes or narration you would use in delivering this presentation to a group
should be listed in the “notes” section of the slide.
?· References
should be listed at the bottom of the slide in slightly smaller text.
?· Use
clip art, AutoShapes, pictures, charts, tables, and diagrams to enhance but not
overwhelm your content.
?· Be
mindful of the intended audience and seek to assess the presentation’s
effectiveness by gauging audience comprehension (when possible).
