Presentation skills

Step 1

Get students to create a presentation based on something that you have been doing in class


Step 2

Get students to go through the Death by Powerpoint presentation.  You can also share this worksheet with them:

Death by PowerPoint from Alexei Kapterev

They should then make adjustments to their presentations based on this information.


Step 3.

Get the students to watch this video as preparation for the video tomorrow:

The Apprentice - Creating a new fast food chain

This is good for higher levels and is interactive and interesting!  I use this video as a project lesson, starting with a discussion about the word 'apprentice'.  They then watch the beginning of the programme and try to guess what it is about.  I then let them watch Lord Sugar as he gives them their instructions, after which they are set off on their own to create their own fast food chain.  They can create powerpoints or posters and present their own ideas.

Then let the, watch the whole programme, they enjoy it!
