CSL Pecha Kucha Presentations

Here are some of the presentations from our last day of class. I will add the presentations that CSLers send my way!

Writers Guild of Alberta on Prezi

Final Send Off

Thank you so much everyone for coming today to our final class.

Thank to you the CSL students who bravely gave wonderful presentations (using Prezzie!) about their placements. They all taught us a lot about not-for-profits organizations and what goes on at the University and in the local area.

Thank you also to the three students, Kelsey, Annalise and Julianna, who created a visual and musical wrap-up of the term using social media! Amazing work!

Effective PowerPoint Presentation

Hello everybody!

I had such a wonderful Wednesday morning in your company; thank you!

Thank you also very much for your comments on the class blog and twitter.

As many of you mentioned, a PowerPoint can take many forms. In some occasions a PowerPoint is used to sell a product or an idea, other times it is used to present the results of a study. In all cases, the PowerPoint must target an audience and must be created with a precise objective in mind. Mine was containing more text that I’m usually comfortable with. The reason for so much text was that I wanted you to use my PowerPoint as notes that you can refer to later during the semester. In other words, I have adjusted my presentation to my audience’s (you) needs.

The best piece of advice is obviously to have fun and to be creative while making and presenting your PowerPoint. This is also an advice that I try to apply in my life in as many situations as possible!!

Have a great weekend!
