hints & tips

5 tips for reviewing a draft presentation

  • Check for ‘jargon’ and abbreviations that have not been explained
     
    …even if you think that the audience will understand you, they may not

  • Ensure that the presentation flows clearly and logically 
     …do not miss things out on the assumption that your audience knows as much about your subject as you
  • Decide how to ‘signpost’ your presentation
     
    …tell the audience that there is an introduction and a conclusion as well as the areas that will be covered in the body of the presentation
  • Rehearse your presentation
     
    …focus particularly on the beginning and the end, the times when the audience is most likely to be listening
  • Think about your contingency plans
     …decide what you would do if your speaking time was cut in half or doubled

…ideally review it with someone who does
not know the subject
