The goal of the workshop is to introduce participants to the fundamentals of creating a presentation. Participants will discuss the components of a good speech or presentation and will eventually develop their own. As they work through the activities, they will write presentations in class. They will be introduced to a variety of delivery techniques that include building rapport with the audience, using body language and humor, and facilitating a question and answer session. Participants do not need to have any prior experience; they only need a desire to improve their presentation skills.
