How can I make my presentations engaging?

We've all been surprised and delighted by great lectures. They are well- organized, fluid and enjoyable. So how do you make your lectures engaging even if you've got stage fright? How do you make your presentations both clear and captivating no matter what your material? We've compiled these resources to help you make any presentation pop.


1. Useful repetition, summaries, and breaking the lecture into smaller parts: make the point of the presentation clear at the beginning, remind them in the middle and emphasize it at the end.
2. Ask yourself, what makes me different from the book? Use examples and stories - the more visual and interactive the
more impact the lecture will have.
3. Watch for feedback; slow down and notice your students’ faces and body language. Do they appear confused or engaged?
How can I reengage them?
