Speaking and Listening: Planning a Multimedia Presentation

Question 10 • *HSA 26-27 English IV A -IC

Which statement describes an effective use of notes in a presentation?

Answer
N
Notes should be read word for word during an oral presentation.
N
Notes should include reminders about eye contact and gesturing.
N
Notes should be easy to follow to maintain the speaker’s train of thought.
N
Notes should include all answers to potential questions from the audience.

Explanation

Notes are most useful when they are organized and easy to follow, helping the speaker keep track of the presentation’s main points. Reading notes word for word can make a presentation sound less natural, and notes do not need to contain answers to every possible audience question. So the effective use is to maintain the speaker’s train of thought.
