Lesson 01 – Orientation and CRAP Design

Welcome

Welcome to our class blog for Advanced Presentations (Academic Skills) class.

I look forward to teaching you all about presentations in the coming term.

First Assignment

Give a short presentation about yourself.

Prepare slides to present on your own laptop next week.

You can use your own photographs. You can also use graphics from the Internet. If you know how to credit the source, include that.

Your presentation should include:

1. Name
2. Academic background (current & previous majors also)
3. Academic interests
4. Personal information (family, hometown, interests)

Make a title slide and practice using contrast.

In your presentation software, open a new file.

Make a title slide with the following points.

• Title
• Subtitle
• Name
• Major
• School
• Date

Use the CRAP principles to design your title slide.

You can review the CRAP presentation and the Images presentation again below.
