How do Average Presenters differ from More Effective Presenters

Average Presenter Concentrates on:
o Having a good presentation
o The content of the presentation
o A formal style of presenting
o Communicating data/information
o Researching the topic
o Lecturing
o Student being responsible for absorbing the material

More Effective Presenter Concentrates on:
o The outcome of the presentation
o The impact on the learners
o An informal style of presenting
o Communicating via stories and examples
o Researching the audience
o Interacting
o Presenter being responsible for student learning

The Average Presenter (AP) is focused more on the presentation itself; the delivery of the material, what the AP looks like, what the presentation aids look like, what the administration thinks of it, how the room fits the presener’s style of presenting or how the presenter can adapt the room to fit his/her teaching style, will the presenter be comfortable, often uses power point or marker board as a crutch

The More Effective Presenter (MEP) is focused on the outcome of the presentation, how it affects the learner: what the learner is getting out of it, how it is being received, is it accomplishing what it was supposed to accomplish, how the environment will affect the learners, is it the right temperature, the right lighting level, are the seats comfortable, do the learners have room to write, can they hear OK, how the presenter can adapt to fit the room and the needs of the learners, uses power point or marker board as an enhancement of the delivery

The AT is concerned with the content of the presentation. The AT is making sure that it matches the outline for the course or other expectations. It must include all points and every point in the lesson must be covered.

The MET is concerned with the impact of the presentation on the learners. How it is being received. What the learners are gaining. Reaching all learning styles.
