Student Presentation Tips - Classroom Presentations - Create Effective Classroom Presentations Making effective classroom presentations takes practice, but with a few tips up your sleeve, you are ready to take on the challenge. Note - These presentation tips refer to PowerPoint slides (all versions), but all of these tips in general, can be applied to any presentation. 1. Know Your Topic Students usually want to charge right in and start using the presentation software immediately. 2. Good presenters use key phrases and include only the most important information. 3. One of the biggest mistakes students make in classroom presentations, is in writing their whole speech on the slides. 4. Too many slides in a presentation will cause you to be rushing to get through them, and your audience might end up paying more attention to the changing slide than to what you are saying. 5. Make your slides easy to follow. 6. Choose a font that is simple and easy to read such as Arial, Times New Roman or Verdana. 7. Dark text on a light background is best. 9. Let's face it.

blog.mrstacey.org.uk » Blog Archive » 50 question challenge I’ve been playing around with some of the opportunities for collaborate learning through Google Docs. I created this revision lesson for Yr 12 to fulfil several criteria. Firstly I wanted a student led overview lesson. Secondly I wanted that lesson to give me some feedback on areas of misunderstanding. Thirdly I wanted to be able to discuss essay technique with students individually while the rest of the class worked and finally I wanted something that provided a copy for students to have at the end of the lesson. Ahead of the lesson I created a Google Doc with 50 questions. In the lesson we logged in to two netbooks and opened up the Google Doc. Students had the hour to work together to answer as many questions as they could. Evaluation It worked well, generally students were focussed, plus it did marvels for their teamwork and problem solving skills. Variations If you don’t have Google Docs you could use any collaborative plaform – a wiki or a service such as primarypad
