Structure of a Presentation presents a three-part plan: introduction, body, and conclusion. The introduction previews the subject and gives the audience a reason to listen. The body develops the main ideas in the order established in the introduction. The conclusion summarizes the key points and ends with a clear final statement.

The lesson also recommends keeping each slide focused on one main idea, limiting text, using examples and photos, and maintaining contact with the audience instead of reading from slides or notes.

Important points

• The introduction tells the audience what the presentation will cover.
• Introduce yourself, explain the subject, identify the objectives, and give the audience a reason to listen.
• Present the body in a logical, smooth order that follows the introduction.
• Use one main idea per slide.
• Use anecdotes, real examples, and photos, and keep text to a minimum.
• The conclusion summarizes the key points and reminds the audience of the advantages of the position, solution, options, or conclusions.
• Finish with a clear final statement and provide contact details when the audience may need more information.
• Engage the audience, avoid reading from the slides, and keep going after minor mistakes.
