Page 34: Designing Effective Presentations

Chunk

It helps you present information in a way that makes it EASIER for your audience/learners to

UNDERSTAND and REMEMBER.

WHY?

Chunk? CHOP IT!

Mnemonics

SODA: http://apotential.wordpress.com/medical-mnemonics/Medical Mnemonics: http://www.medicalmnemonics.com/

Mnemonics are learning memory techniques that help learners recall larger pieces of information, especially in the form of lists like characteristics, steps, stages, parts, phases, etc.

Mind Maps

Mind Map Guidelines: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map Mind Maps in Medicine: http://www.mindmaptutor.com/2011/04/mind-maps-in-medicine/

Mind maps help learners comprehend, see the big picture, create new ideas, and build connections.
