Question

Read the presentation structure again. Answer the questions.

Answer

  1. At the start of a presentation, information such as greeting the audience, introducing oneself, giving an outline of the topic, and stating why the topic is important to the presenter is provided.
  2. Someone can show the importance of a topic by expressing personal passion or connection to it, highlighting its relevance to the audience's interests or concerns, and explaining the potential impact or significance of the topic.
  3. Pictures are useful in a presentation because they can add interest, visually illustrate key points or concepts, help in conveying complex information more effectively, and engage the audience's attention.
  4. The longest part of the presentation is the main points section, which comprises 70% of the presentation's structure.
  5. The main points should be mentioned and elaborated upon throughout the main points section of the presentation. They don't need to be repeated constantly, but they should be consistently referenced and reinforced with examples and evidence.
  6. At the end of the presentation, the audience should be able to understand and recall the main points of the presentation, appreciate the importance of the topic, and be encouraged to engage further with the subject matter, potentially through questions or discussion.
