format

Examples of format in the following topics:

• Group Presentation Formats

  • Group presentations can be structured around a set format or can borrow components from different formats.
  • Group presentations can take place in different formats.
  • These formats give a group an idea of how to structure their presentation, though different components can be taken from several formats and combined according to a group's particular needs and goals.
  • A panel is a format in which the presenters talk to each other in addition to the audience.
  • In this format, the designated leader of a group makes an individual presentation of the group's thoughts and findings on a topic.

• Formatting Tips

  • Formatting choices, including layout, font selection, transitions and use of space and color, are important components of a presentation.
  • Put similar ideas in the same formatting by using the same parts of speech, same clauses, phrases, or all complete sentences.
  • Select the "bulleted list" or "two-column list" slide (from the pre-designed slide formats).
  • Video and Audio: You can search and select video in different media formats.
  • Your presentation will then be exported to a Word document for formatting.

• Other Presentation Software Options

  • Mind Maps break away from the linear format of PowerPoint by using graphic symbols to show connections between different ideas, allowing the presenter to show a top level map and then drill down to show details for different connecting ideas.
  • The free service includes it own presentation software that can be exported in open office format as well as Microsoft Office.

• Dynamic Representations: Video and Multimedia

  • The various formats of technological or digital multimedia available to presenters may be intended to enhance the users' experience, quickly and easily convey information, or transcend everyday experiences.
  • Presentation software programs provide public speakers with the ability to display video, photography, and other dynamic content in slideshow formats suitable for small and large audiences.
  • Since PDF files are designed to be shared regardless of the platform, this format would allow presentations to be more widely accessible.

• Components of a Speech: Main Points, Introduction, Conclusion, and Transitions

  • However, transitions are crucial for public speakers, since speakers need to compensate for the loss of visual formatting.
  • On a written page, formatting provides a helpful road map: the reader sees topic headings, paragraph breaks, and other visual cues that signal transitions naturally.

• Thoughts for Group and Individual Presenters

  • All handouts or visuals should use the same formatting.
  • A patchwork of different fonts, font sizes, and other formatting conventions may negatively impress the audience, distract or mislead them, and undermine the group's credibility.

• Make Messages Easy to Remember

  • Encoding (or registration), storage, and recollection comprise the three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory.
  • From an information processing perspective, there are three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory:

• Adapting to Handouts and Visuals

  • You can deliver your visual aid in different media or formats depending on your budget and the availability of supplies and equipment.

• Sample Persuasive Speech

  • There are no formal rules on what topics, formats, or viewpoints qualify as persuasion.

• Career Benefits: Advancement

  • The primary elements of the typical job application--the resume, cover letter, and interview--are tough to ace, since rigid formatting makes it difficult to stand out from the crowd.
