Week 5 - Discussion

Discuss the workplace challenge

Discuss

Share one presentation design choice that helps an audience act rather than merely receive information. Explain what evidence would tell you the choice worked.

Start with this situation

A professional must turn evidence into a short presentation that is readable, accurate, accessible, and ready for questions.

Build the presentation decision

  1. Name the audience action your presentation should support.
  2. Choose the evidence and visual emphasis that would help the audience reach that action.
  3. Ask classmates what feedback would show that the presentation is working.

Your reply to a classmate

Suggest one revision to the audience action, evidence story, visual hierarchy, or delivery plan and explain the reasoning.

What to include

  1. Name the audience and desired action.
  2. Use one Week 5 concept.
  3. Reply to one classmate with a rehearsal or accessibility test.

Write for a real audience

Separate observations from assumptions, write for a real reader, and proofread for tone, accuracy, accessibility, and a response that invites further thought.
