In this course we explore how to design and conduct a presentation that is learner-centered. Discover why telling doesn't equal learning, and covering content doesn’t mean it has been learned.

When content is presented in “caffeinated” ways, listeners become participants, participants become learners, and learners return to work excited and able to implement your ideas. Discover simple strategies any presenter, new or seasoned, can do to add a jolt of caffeine to the learning experience.

Learning Objectives
  • Explore the most current research on learning and recognize simple strategies for incorporating it into your presentations
  • Identify methods for grabbing and maintaining your audience’s attention
  • Identify practical ways to increase audience engagement
  • Discover how to make slides that are pleasing and effective

Well-presented and useful information. While geared toward developing training materials, many of the principles can also be applied to a business setting to help keep presentations interesting and increase engagement. I'd like to see another version of this training that's focused toward online business presentations.

This was a pretty good course, but it I was hoping to get a few more tips that would work in the business setting as I think that some of these tips are better suited for non-business setting applications.
