10 Tips for Successfully Making a Presentation (The Basics of Presenting with a Computer)
1. Begin by introducing yourself.
Your title page, which should include the title, your name, and the date, should
be displayed as you introduce yourself
2. Use no more than 3 slides per minute
3. Stand to the right of the screen. People read from left to right and their
eyes should go from you-the speaker, to the screen-the visual message.
4. Maintain eye contact with your audience; avoid turning your back to the audience
at all costs
5. Don't fidget
6. Use clear language to state your point
7. Never read your presentation. Talk extemporaneously and support your talk
with anecdotes or examples to amplify or clarify your point
8. Distribute printed copies of presentation for note taking
9. Create an appropriate ending by either summarizing the main points, making
recommendations, or providing options
10. Make good use of time-don't hurry
