Preparing Your Presentation
• Think about the purpose and target audience – what is the key message and why is it important?
• FIRST, sketch out your ideas on paper – brainstorm, edit, sift through your ideas
• Use Post-Its to help structure & sequence your ideas, and identify the overall structure – this “birds-eye view” is very useful
