Presentation Analysis

Task

Students will be presented with a sample presentation. This presentation will be available to download from Interact2.

This is a presentation prepared by an internal staff member to be delivered to a non-English speaking background audience (visitors from outside Australia and visiting this country the first time). The organiser has seen that this presentation is not appropriate and is very badly made.

You need to write a report for the organiser that addresses the following:

a) Give three suggestions about how you can improve this presentation for an international audience in Australia. (30 words x 3).

b) Explain two technologies you could use to present the information contained in this presentation in a more effective manner to this audience. (200 words x 2).

c) Imagine that the event needs to take place online via video conferencing and/or social media. How would you present this information to the audience? (800 words).

d) Current references (published within the last three years) have been included in the APA 6th edition format.

Rationale

• Be able to select an appropriate communication style and technique when delivering a message in different settings and to different audiences.
