Presentations., Ideas? Options

[OhMyAnniee]

Hm, so I have a presentation in a few weeks...
& I'm pretty determined that I want to get a perfect score on it.

My teacher said that it should be interesting. Educational but not like boring. My friend went today and her's was pretty boring. She used a powerpoint & that sorta made it more dull.

I don't know if I should use a powerpoint. Any ideas on how to make black&white pictures seem cool during a presentation without using a powerpoint?

So yeah. Any interesting & fun ways to present?

Teachers really love it when you can incorporate some type of symbolism and meaning into your presentation, connecting it to your theme rather than just blindly stating facts.

For instance, I just finished doing a presentation where I had to analyze a poem and a song, and compare and contrast both. The theme of the poem and song that we chose was adolescence, and since that's such a time of self-discovery, it's like going through a maze and picking the right route to go. And so, that's what we did. Walk through a maze, I mean, while presenting.

That's a more mature way to incorporate some creativity, but I have tried some other, less deep but more fun ways to make a presentation more interesting.

You could give your audience members incentives to listen, so bring a bag of candy or something just as tempting, and ask them questions about your presentation at the end (remember to tell them about this in the beginning so that they'll listen the whole way through).

Skits are fun, too, if not a little tricky. However, if you're really good at improvising (and you have the ability to make people laugh), it could be really successful, and it would catch their attention.
