Introduction

Interactive television in any format is primarily a visual medium. Verbal and non-verbal presentations are most important. Knowing how to communicate effectively with non-verbal expressions may be more important than what is said. This workshop provides ample opportunity for participants to practice these skills in small teams with peer review. Teams make two-minute presentations followed by peer review and immediate feedback.

Participants are introduced to attention focusing strategies, motivational techniques, storytelling, and other presentational skills.

Workshop Learning Performance Objectives

Each participant will make 5 two-minute presentations in a team of 3-5 participants. Each presentation will be videotaped and reviewed by the team for positive critique. Given the feedback data, each presentation will be re-taped for further critique.

Specific topics

Presentation on interactive television is 75% non-verbal. Interactive television is a visual medium that exaggerates all of your best features. Knowing what makes you special in terms of how you look, sound, and move will enhance your teaching abilities. This workshop provides an opportunity to identify your special features and practice them with constructive and positive feedback.
