How Are You Going to Develop Your Presentation?

There is a lot to think about before you even start you start gathering material for your presentation: Like an essay a presentations can be developed a number of ways to bring out the main points effectively.




Although nothing is cut in stone you should decide this before you even begin to gather material. Sit down in a personal brainstorming session and ask yourself:  Is it  going to be based on Description, Narration, or one of the other techniques to build the main points and supporting material of your speech such  as: Compare and  Contrast;  Cause and Effect; Problem and Solution; Classification and Division;  or How To ? Or are you going to use a combination of these?


Or -- is your presentation going to be argumentative or persuasive?


Lay all of this out in the Mind Map and think about it carefully. It will make the rest of your speech or presentation research and writing much easier.


Just which method you use, of course, will depend on your material, audience, and purpose. You should have a clear mental picture of these last two --especially -- before you do anything
