Presentation Skills for Teachers

Although teachers are used to speaking to classes and groups of young people, they are often called upon to give presentations to adult groups. Such presentations - at a parent's meeting, PTA meeting, prize day or governor's board meeting - require an entirely different approach, preparation and delivery.;Covering all aspects of the presentation event, this book examines areas such as: overcoming fears of speaking in public; researching the audience and subject; planning, structuring and timing the presentation; choosing and preparing visual aids; and the importance of rehearsal.;Using checklists, case studies and activities taken directly from the educational environment, this book should be useful for any teacher setting out to give a presentation as a representative of their school.
