Blog 7 Presentation Skills

-

 Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarokatuh

Hi blogger friends, this time is the seventh blog in one of the subjects that I took, namely presentation skills.  In this seventh  blog, I will write down the activities and assignments given in the fourth week of the course.

Our material that week talking about VISUALS.

The first rule of preparing effective visuals is that they should be clear and easy for the audience to follow. However, sometimes it is necessary to explain a more complicated visual and it is always necessary to point out the most important information.

 : I would suggest to someone to describe trends on graphs and charts to pay attention to the visuals in the sense of not using a lot of visuals so that what we are going to convey is easy to understand. 

Most presentations are focused on data and numbers. When presenting a graph, chart, or any other type of visual, the main goal is to help people understand the main points. 

The next important thing is to choose the right chart/chart that will depict the numbers well.

After creating an attractive graphic, one can grab the attention of the audience by using some introductory phrases such as: Include specific details as this horizontal bar shows, the shaded area represents, etc.

The next material is about GRAPH. Presentation software (sometimes called "presentation graphics") is a category of application program used to create sequences of words and pictures that tell a story or help support a speech or public presentation of information.

Presentation visuals build emotional bridges with the audience. They say a picture is worth a thousand words—it's cliché but true. Images make viewers feel things that words cannot and give presenters a way to connect with their audience on a more visceral level.

The next material is about trends past simple and present perfect.

Past simple talk about a movement or trend which happened in the past and is now finished. 

1. Signal words for the past simple are last month/year, in January, from 1997-2001, during the oil crisis.

2. Present perfect talk about a movement or trend which started in the past but is not yet finished. Signal words are since (since August) for (for five years).

And the last material is about differences between RISE and RAISE.

1. 'To rise' (without an object)

2. Petrol prices 'rose' again in May

3. The number of tourists 'has risen' to 2.6 million

4. 'To raise' (with an object)

5. The oil industry 'raised' prices last year

6. The European Central Bank 'has raised' interest rates.


Okay, I think that's all about the materials that I have learned

Thank you

Wassalamualaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarokatuh.

  Tuesday, May 25, 2021 Topic : "Discussion Meeting" Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarokatuh..   Hello everyone, this time my blog is different from the previous one because in this blog I only tell a little about the intercultural communication meeting which only discusses preparation for the final exam.  This time our meeting was through Microsoft Teams 365. To be honest, this is a new thing for me in using Microsoft, there are some obstacles when I want to enter the 365 website, and in my opinion it's easier to enter into the LMS syam-ok.  That's because I'm used to using LMS syam-ok, but that's okay, I will continue to learn to use Microsoft 365 because it has many benefits and makes it easier for Miss to record our meetings, besides that there are many other benefits.   Another advantage of this Microsft Teams is that it makes it easy to Miss to see who comes to join on time and who is late, then it will be seen if someone comes in and out of the room...
