In a career in the field of psychology, you may be called upon to conduct research and deliver findings in professional settings. No matter how extensive the research or accurate the conclusions, a weak presentation can undermine an argument. A presentation is a tool to assist in making an argument. In creating your presentation, you develop skills in researching an issue, synthesizing the information, organizing data logically, and presenting findings in an effective manner.
In this presentation, you will present your research on the historical development of your subfield of interest. Be sure to include the following critical elements in your presentation:
-Present research findings on historical developments in your selected subfield, including influential people and major events in your selected subfield.
-Explain how at least one historical study in your selected subfield has impacted society, science, research, or otherwise.
-Use credible evidence and supporting resources to support your presentation.
The audience for this presentation will be your peers.
Recommendations for Developing an Effective Presentation
Use Microsoft PowerPoint or similar presentation software to create your presentation.
There are various template designs that you can find on the web for your presentation. However, first consider your presentation from the perspective of your audience prior to selecting a specific style. Distracting backgrounds, large blocks of text, all uppercase fonts, elaborate font styles, grammatical errors, and misspellings are distracting. Be consistent with the style of text, bullets, and subpoints in order to support a powerful presentation that allows your content to be the focus.
Each slide should include your key point(s). Do not place large blocks of text on the visual. Your presentation is not a means of presenting a short paper. In an actual presentation, you would not “read” from your slides but rather use them as prompts.
Speaker’s notes should be listed in the “notes” section of the slide.
References should be listed at the bottom of the slide in slightly smaller text.
Use pictures, charts, tables, and diagrams to enhance but not overwhelm your content.
Be mindful of the intended audience and seek to assess the presentation’s effectiveness by gauging audience comprehension (when possible).
Each slide must have speaker notes. Majority of the info is to go on the speaker notes.
