Paper hand outs-
Paper hand outs are a great way to keep your audience entertained and involved with your presentation. Some of you audience may prefer the having something written up and infant of them, so they can read it themselves. It is also very useful as they can take it away with them to look back on. Some people may find that presentations are too quick, so it is a good resource to follow.
Imagery and Posters-
If you would like to forget the tech side of a presentation and really engage with the audience one to one you could involve imagery or posters to do with the presentation. This way the audience arent staring at a screen getting distracted at other things, they will be looking around at the posters and listening to the speaker, therefore engaging and making eye contact. Having imagery is a good way to describe what you are also talking about.
Flip Chart/ Board
Why not be old school and use a Flipchart or black board to present? Your’e controlling everything you wright/ draw. So there is no technical faults. This is a good way to make sure your audience is following you and on the same page as you.

Powerpoint
Powerpoint is just an all round easy software to use for presentations for any age. At one point it was estimated that there are 30 million PowerPoint presentations given every day. It is very simple to use with clear layouts. If you are a first time presenter, i would recommend to use Powerpoint as it is so straight forward.
Canva
Canva is a free graphic-design tool website where you can create an account with them to create presentations/ posters/ mood boards etc. It is slightly more fancy than Powerpoint as it is more visually advanced. It is used by non-designers and professionals. You have access to different tools to create a funky presentation such as shapes, layouts, effects etc. This is my favourite platform to use because i love how creative it is, and whenever i have used it it definitely grabs the audiences attention more than any other online presenting tool.
Video (Biteable)
Biteable is an online video presenting tool. You can create a video presentation from scratch using their huge library of animation, movie, and still scene templates. You can also use their free music compositions, or upload your own music, logos and photos. The Biteable online presentation maker has simple user tools, professional animations and music, and a great online library of scene templates to customize into your own movie or slideshow. If you aren’t confident with your video making skills, you could just use one of our pre-made, editable video templates. When not feeling majorly confident with video in the first place i would usually try and stick with a programme that is quite self explanatory like Biteable. Video is an extremely entertaining way of presenting information. Rather than clicking through a simple slide show with lots of words, why not watch a video explaining your information? Adding music, great acting or interviews all different way of presenting info in a creative and exciting way.
