three sources that i find useful Mr Becker

These sources were useful because they informed me on how to make an informative presentation. For example one of the tips was tell real stories, this is effective because it will draw in the audience attention and make you more entertaining. The advantages of these tips was that i know now how to make a great presentation. On the other hand the disadvantage is some of them was to worded to understand. 

10 tips to making a better powerpoint

What makes a good PowerPoint

The bad things in a PowerPoint presentation:
-i couldn't see the text clearly
-the same thing over and over
-Looks incomplete with the blank spaces
-I cant see the screen. Focus, text and lighting.
-The presenter doesn't know his own material. He has not learnt it off by heart and does not rehearse. The presenter is monotone and has no confidence.
-Volume of the information is to much.
-On topic/off topic.

Good things in a PowerPoint presentation:
-Ideas are powerful.
-Turn the presentation into a story which makes it more appealing for the audience.
-The presenter is more of the mentor than the audience because they are helping the audience understand the presentation.
-Always look to the future to keep the audience entertained.
-Go back and fourth from whats normally expected and the future.
-Always have a structure to your PowerPoint (beginning, middle and end).
-Make sure you are not talking the whole time as this bores the audience.
-You know you have a good presentation if you receive laughing and clapping the whole time.
-Most important make sure that you are enthusiastic.
-Make sure you finish with a quote as this will make it memorable.
-Repeat key words so that this stands out to them and use metaphors.
-Relate with the audience so they will appreciate you.

The thing i can do to make a memorable presentation is emotionally abuse the audience as this would stand out as they would know what it is like to get emotionally abused.

There was many reading techniques I have used throughout this unit. For example skim reading, skim reading is quickly looking over a piece of text while picking up key parts of the text. This is useful when you are on a train journey and you want to quickly glance over a newspaper. Another example was scan reading, this is when you are looking over a extract and you are looking for specific key word or phrase. This is useful when you are reading an extract and you want to look over specific text with a keyword. My final example is a phrase search, this is when you type a specific phrase into Google and it comes up with a extract with that specific phrase. This is useful when you want to find a book and a chapter that has a specific term you want to read.

There are many types of information extract techniques I have used for example highlighting. Highlighting is when you notice a key word or phrase and instead of reading all over again you highlight it to make it stand out next time you read it. This is useful when you want to pick out terms from a specific extract to present to someone. I used highlighting when i was annotating emotional abuse articles. A second example is summarising, this is when you read a long piece of text and you shorten it to it key points so that it is shorter for the reader. This is useful when your friend wants to read an article but it is too long so you summarise it so that it is more bearable to read. I used this when i summarised an article about Jeremy Coybern. My final example is coping and pasting extracts, this is when you copy and paste an extract from the internet because it contains valuable information. This is useful when you need evidence to back up a specific point. I used it when I needed an article for my annotating task.
