Objectives

  • Presentations skills and public speaking skills are very useful in many aspects of work and life. No matter how brilliant ideas one can have, these will not work out well unless ideas can be presented well. Effective presentations and public speaking skills are important in business, sales and selling, training, teaching, lecturing, and generally feeling comfortable speaking to a group of people. Developing the confidence and capability to deliver good presentations, and to stand up in front of an audience and speak well, are also extremely helpful competencies for self-development and social situations. Presentation skills and public speaking abilities are not limited to certain special people - anyone can give a good presentation, or perform public speaking to a professional and impressive standard. Preparation and practice are two most important factors in developing presentation skill. 2. The formats and purposes of presentations can be very different, for example: oral (spoken), multimedia (using various media - visuals, audio, etc), PowerPoint presentations, short impromptu presentations, long planned presentations, educational or training sessions, lectures, and simply giving a talk on a subject to a group on a voluntary basis.

Outcomes

  • The learning objectives of this course are as follows: a. To understand importance of verbal and nonverbal communication b. To develop ability of organizing information for presentation c.
