Discover a six-step process for designing presentations and training sessions that consistently engage participants.

  1. Mind Map – Learn a quick and easy visual method for determining the content needed for your training/teaching sessions.
  2. Define Objectives – Decide what you want participants to know, be able to do, and to feel, as a result of your training/teaching.
  3. Prioritize Content – Differentiate between the content that participants really “need to know” and that which is only “nice to know.” Also, determine what content you should tell them “where to go” to find, if needed.
  4. Outline Content – Based upon the visual “mind map,” organize the teaching content into an outline form.
  5. Chunk Content – Based upon the outline, organize the teaching content into CPR “chunks” (bite-size segments) that can be taught in about 20 minutes. Each chunk includes some (1) new content and time to (2) process that content. A (3) review activity should occur after two or three chunks (40-60 minutes period).
  6. Insert Activities – Explore 37 alternatives to lecture that will add options to your presentational toolkit.
