“Death” by PowerPoint

A major aspect of university degrees is to create and deliver presentations to your class and be graded by your Lecturer. Whilst this may seem an arduous task, this does actually help you on clinical placement and later when you are in the clinical environment. The benefits of presenting to a group of people are numerous. These benefits include:

  • They help overcome the initial fear of facing people confidently and allow them to perform to their potential;
  • Improves body language and  eye contact with people and teaches the use of right postures to captivate and inform the listeners;
  • Listeners can be encouraged to participate more in the discussion and thereby increase the interaction and success rate exponentially;
  • Enables use of modern communication tools like slides, power point presentation and visual aids which have more lasting impression on the viewers than mere talk. Studies have clearly pointed out the merits of using visual aids in addition to general talk.
  • Increases a person’s ability to face people either in person or in groups well and mentally prepares in advance to face the volley of questions posed by the group;
  • Improves professionalism – a must when working with patients/clients;
  • Promotes the ability to work as a team as you will be in the clinical environment;
  • A presenter or staff member is given an added advantage over someone who is less than polished in public speaking (i.e. someone who actually avoids it like the plague), when he or she can get up and deliver a well-constructed, confident presentation in front of a group of colleagues, and;
  • Presentation and public speaking skills are “learnt” skills. By working on these skills, the quiet and shy person can learn to present with confidence and eventually – in a sense – “Find their voice”.
