Web Based Presentation Criteria

In order to be interesting to view online, a presentation needs to move at a tighter pace and be more visual.  Without the presence of a live speaker to command attention, the audience’s attention may wander. Here are some tips to keep your online presentation interesting and engaging:

  1. Use lots of pictures (preferably at least one per slide)
  2. Use lots of slides (They’re free!). Divide multiple points among multiple slides rather than stacking up four or five bullet points on a single slide
  3. Try to make your slides visually attractive
  4. Avoid complex charts and diagrams
  5. Be concise and to the point.
  6. Plan for your presentation to be fifteen to twenty minutes long.  If you need more time break your presentations into two parts. 


Check out the examples and help on this page for ideas. Don’t worry, if you are selected as a presenter, we’ll provide assistance in making your presentation an effective standalone production. You’ll even be provided with a copy for your own use. Your new stand-alone copy will offer you a number of distribution possibilities because it won’t be just a PowerPoint Presentation anymore. You will be able to use it in web pages, kiosks, or distribute it to others in a format that can be viewed with either a pc or a DVD player.

Your proposal submission needs to include the following:

  1. The completed proposal form (link is above)
  2. A 1-2 page summary of your presentation
  3. A PowerPoint presentation if available


Chosen presenters will be contacted by February 8.The process of turning your presentation into a stand-alone version that will be used for this webinar will then begin. Presenters will provide a PowerPoint presentation and an audio recording of their presentation to the CoE. The presenter is also responsible for providing at least three discussion questions and a short post-session assessment. 

We'll be asking presenters for the following:

  1. A voice recording of your presentation to accompany the PowerPoint
  2. Two or three discussion questions for the discussion board
  3. A short multiple choice or true or false post presentation assessment made up of five to ten questions.  This will be used not only as a way for participants to make sure they caught all of the main points of the presentation but as a check of their attendance for awarding clock hours or continuing education credits.


The webinar will extend over a six-week period. Each week several presentations will be available for the attendees.  Attendees will have access to a discussion board dedicated to the session to share their responses to the presenter’s question as well as share their own experiences and ideas about the topic. 

Before the webinar begins we will have your presentation and discussion board set up for you in an Angel classroom. During the week when each presentation is available the presenter will be expected to answer questions posted on their presentation discussion board. You will be able to view and familiarize yourself with the discussion board setup prior to April 19. Assistance will be provided to all our presenters to become acquainted to the new online format.

The presentations used in this webinar will remain available for viewing throughout the conference and will be archived on the Center of Excellence for Allied Health website for future viewing.

We look forward to receiving your proposals!
