Presentation Dos and Don’ts

Overview:
According to Dictionary.com (2015), a best practice is defined as “a practice which is most appropriate under the circumstances, especially as
considered acceptable or regulated in business; a technique or methodology that, through experience and research, has reliably led to a desired or optimum
result.”
It is an insight located from research that has been studied in a rigorous manner and its use produces an exceptional result.

Consider the following scenario: As the PR intern at a large public relations agency, team members often ask for you to review client presentations as a fresh set
of eyes. After reviewing a handful of presentations, you notice the same set of challenges from one presentation to another. To help your team, and the overall
agency, you decide to create a Word document checklist of presentation dos and don’ts to be pinned up at everyone’s desk.

Prompt: Create a one-page checklist that summarizes three dos and three don’tsfrom your research on best practices for creating and delivering presentations.
Ensure that one of these points speaks to choosing presentation content for a target audience, one point encompasses research on ethics in presentations, and
one point encompasses key Associated Press (AP) style learning from the Module Three readings. Use citations to indicate all sources of your research.

Using the internet, search for actual presentations.
Then, include two visuals from current, real-world presentation slide(s) (created in the past 12 months) that
illustrate one of your dos and one of your don’ts for the reader. These two visuals should be included on the second page of your submission.

Components of this activity will assist you in completing critical element II (planning) in your Final Project Part I submission.

Guidelines for Submission: Submit assignment as a Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins.
