Edward Tufte's Presentation Tips
Summary (by austinkleon):
- Prepare: practice in front of audience, mirror, video
- Innovate: find ways to take the presentation beyond a linear presentation of facts, and instead make it become something like a dialogue
- Show up early
- Start by clearly telling the audience: What the problem is, who cares, and what your solution is.
- Never apologize: most people won’t notice
- Always provide a handout
- Don’t dumb down anything
- Treat questions carefully
- Show your enthusiasm! Don’t hide behind lectern. Use gestures, walk around, engage.
- Drink enormous amounts of water
- Finish early
(from 37signals)
Tufte says his mentors showed him “how successful scholars lived,’’ and he loved it. “I wanted to get done with school as quickly as possible and become a professor. I realized the academic world is a more humane and ethical place with better values than most of the world… . It’s also much more tolerant of idiosyncrasy and independence. I’ve always been contemptuous of authority. There aren’t better places than the university to do that and get away with it.’’
