A key point to remember for lecture delivery is that presentations are prepared for the ear rather than the eye. However, the look will enhance the retention and broaden the engagement of all learners.
The verbal presentation should be inclusive of the following:
  • Short, simple words and informal sentence structure and diction
  • Present succinctly in short sentences
  • Prepare transitions for easy understanding
  • Provide a logical progression
  • Be sure to incorporate repetition and summaries throughout
  • Allow time for questions
