The role of academic presentations in education

Abstract: The concept of academic presentations is a new step in the way of teaching students work with a text editor and correct presentation to the audience.

Key words: presentation software, audience, multimedia presentation, communication tool, academic arguments, organization.

A presentation is the process of presenting a topic to an audience. It is typically a demonstration, lecture, or speech meant to inform, persuade, or build good will. The term can also be used for a formal or ritualized introduction or offering, as with the presentation of a debutante.

An effective teacher is an excellent communicator and therefore thinks about improving his or her presentation skills. One of the most important aspects of communicating is shaping both content and style to fit your audience. In the classroom, if you cannot communicate in a way that is both comprehensible and interesting to your students, their learning will be greatly reduced. [1]

Presenting your work to others demonstrates many of the skills needed to complete your degree, such as:

· Good organization

· Answering questions from your tutor and student colleagues verbally

· Gaining confidence in your verbal communication skills

· Using technology to visually display your work

· Developing academic arguments and defending them

· Engaging in debate about other students' work

To date the most comprehensive definition is: the presentation (academic presentation skills) is one of the information technologies that are used to provide information to consumers, addressed to specific people and focused on the challenge of desired behavioral responses. [2,112]

A presentation program, such as Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, OpenOffice.org Impress or Prezi, is often used to generate the presentation content. Modern internet-based presentation software, such as the presentation application in Google Docs, SlideRocket and emaze also allow presentations to be developed collaboratively by geographically disparate collaborators. Presentation viewers can be used to combine content from different presentation programs into one presentation. [3,196]

Presentation software is probably better known by its product names: Powerpoint (Microsoft), Keynote (from Apple), the free Impress (OpenOffice) and a growing range of free or paid online options, including presentations.[4,337]

New technology provides a wide range of ways for teachers to help learners improve their skills.

The Russian scientists Nisilevich A.B, Strizhova E.V in their work “Information technology and communication Techniques in teaching foreign language” wrote about the importance of using information technologies in teaching foreign languages [5, 247].
