在學(xué)習(xí)與工作中,經(jīng)常需要我們用英文做一些主題展示,或表達思想,或介紹經(jīng)驗,或推廣品牌... ... Presentation既像演講,又不同于演講,同在于都需要良好的語言組織能力和表達溝通技巧,異在于,相比于演講的某些渲染效果,Presentation對于信息傳達的精準(zhǔn)性和簡潔性要求更高,目的性更強,往往還會借助PPT這一媒介。因此,不論是在課堂還是工作中,能做好一個英文Presentation的能力都極為重要。

今天,英語君就為大家介紹一些做Presentation的注意事項。

Preparation準(zhǔn)備篇

要想做好一個presentation,最重要的三件事是什么?

Preparation!

Preparation!

Preparation!

重要的事說三遍?。?!

那么,我們應(yīng)該考慮哪些問題呢?

1. Objective 目標(biāo)

Why?am I making this presentation?”

任何presentation都要有一個目標(biāo)。一般來說,這些目標(biāo)可以分為四大類:

Inform
(通知,介紹)

Train
(培訓(xùn))

Persuade
(勸說)

Sell
(銷售)

2. Audience 受眾

"Who?am I making this presentation to?"

這個問題看似簡單,其實不易。我們需要考慮到種種情況:

How many people?
多少人

Who are they? Business people? Professional people? Political people? Experts or non-experts?
受眾職業(yè)、社會地位

Will it be a small, intimate group of 4 colleagues or a large gathering of 400 competitors?
規(guī)模

How much do they know already and what will they expect from you?
受眾的了解程度和期許

3. Venue 地點

"Where am I making this presentation?"

In a small hotel meeting-room or a large conference hall?
是會議室還是大廳?

What facilities and equipment are available?
有哪些設(shè)備?

What are the seating arrangements?
座位安排是怎樣的?

4. Time and length 時間與時長

"When am I making this presentation and how long will it be?"

Just before lunch, when your audience will be hungry, or just after lunch, when your audience will be sleepy?
考慮特殊情況,如果在午飯前,觀眾會不會因為餓急著吃飯?如果在午飯后,觀眾會不會困倦?

5. Method方式

How?should I make this presentation?"

Formal or informal?
正式還是非正式?

Lots of visual aids or only a few?
使用多少視覺上的媒介(如圖片,視頻,實物等)

Will you include some anecdotes and humour for variety?
是否應(yīng)該加一些引用和小幽默

6. Content 內(nèi)容

"What should I say?"

Brainstorm your ideas.
第一步 ?頭腦風(fēng)暴

Be selective. You should include only information that is relevant to your audience and your objective.
第二步 ?篩選(條件設(shè)定要根據(jù)以上考慮的5個問題)

Create a title for your presentation. The title will help you to focus on the subject.
第三步 ?擬定標(biāo)題(這一步可以在頭腦風(fēng)暴中就完成)

Prepare your visual aids, if you have decided to use them. But remember, in general, less is better than more.
第四部 ?準(zhǔn)備視覺輔助工具(求簡不求多)

7. Structure 結(jié)構(gòu)

清晰的結(jié)構(gòu)是一個成功presentation的關(guān)鍵。一般來講,一個presentation大概可以分為三部分

?

?

Beginning

Short
introduction

welcome your audience

introduce your subject

explain the structure of your presentation

explain rules for questions

Middle

Body of
presentation

present the subject itself

End

Short
conclusion

summarise your presentation

thank your audience

invite questions

?

8. Rehearsal排練

排練在Presentation中發(fā)揮著至關(guān)重要的作用,主要有以下好處:

you will become more familiar with what you want to say.
熟悉內(nèi)容

you will identify weaknesses in your presentation.
發(fā)現(xiàn)缺陷

you will be able to practise difficult pronunciations.
練習(xí)難點

you will be able to check the time that your presentation takes and make any necessary modifications.
把握時間

以上就是在做presentation準(zhǔn)備階段需要考慮的問題,當(dāng)然,英語君只舉了有限的例子。相信有了整體的框架之后,大家做Presentation的思路會更加清晰,需要的只是在框架中填補內(nèi)容。下一期,英語君將為大家?guī)碜鯬resentation的更多注意事項。
