Start with the essentials
A useful presentation gives an audience a clear path through an idea.
Begin with the question, select only the evidence needed and use readable visuals.
Put it into practice
Practise aloud, time the talk and prepare to explain uncertainties without overstating the findings.
Create a short working document for this activity. Record the decisions you make, the sources you consult and any questions that need an authoritative answer. Revisit the document after receiving feedback rather than treating the first version as final.
A practical reflection
- What is the specific outcome you want from this activity?
- Which information is verified, and which assumptions still need checking?
- What is the smallest useful action you can take next?
- Who can provide relevant, qualified feedback?
