Presentation Skills 1: Creating effective content

Effective content is dependent upon 3 things: understanding and meeting your audience where they are, strategic sequencing of the correct arguments, and integrating stories to facilitate engagement, comprehension, and memory. This workshop tackles all 3.

Learning outcomes include:
1. Understanding how to use audience and purpose analysis to hone content
2. Developing effective argumentation and scaffolding for presenting research
3. Strategies for developing and incorporating effective story
