"Here are my rough draft thoughts on a new service I am providing “TJ Walker Remote Keynote (Delivered live via Skype)”

TJ Walker is now available for keynote speeches to remote convention and conference audiences around the world via Skype Satellite/Internet Technology. This is ideal for conferences that are already projecting speakers on I-Mags (Image Magnification) or other projection screens. (Works for any sized group) TJ speaks live (not a canned, pre-recorded video) and answers questions live from audience members."

"Enter Keynote Tweet, a simple open-source script that provides the capacity to participate in the backchannel by combining Twitter with Apple Keynote. All you have to do is add text wrapped in [twitter] and [/twitter] tags in the presenter notes section of a slide. When that slide comes up in the presentation the script grabs that text and sends it to Twitter on your behalf."

The Presentation Planning Pyramid (or Pyramid of Apprehension) is a tool for planning presentations that don’t suck. A presentation that doesn’t suck is simple to describe and hard to pull off.

The main aim of a presentation is to help others talk to their friends and colleagues.

The pyramid works a bit like a game.
The object of the game is for your ideas to climb the pyramid. You can play it on your own but it works best when played with a team.

"Yes, these people playing along on Twitter have the freedom to say whatever they want about anybody or anything, and yes, the conference organizers can make the decision as to whether or not they want to run the tweets live on the screen as they happen, but what's missing is what makes Twitter so great: the choice of who to follow (and who to ignore). Speakers don't deserve your attention, they definitely have to earn it, but for those who shelled out the shekels to attend this conference, it does take away from the experience if the audience's energy is more focused on the tweets on the wall behind the speaker than what's coming out of the speaker's mouths."

"People used to whisper to each other or pass hand-scribbled notes during presentations. Now these notes are going digital on Twitter or via conference-provided chat rooms.

Up until now, this back-channel has been mainly confined to the Internet industry and technology conferences. However, a survey of leadership conferences from Weber Shandwick shows that there is a significant increase in blogging and twittering at conferences.

So the next time you present at a conference, instead of being confronted by a sea of faces looking at you, you may be phased by a sea of heads looking down at their laptops. The challenge is how to adapt to presenting with the back-channel."

"At about the same time, the presentation style known as “pecha kucha” emerged. Pecha kucha solves the death-by-Powerpoint problem by introducing constraints: 20 slides, set to auto-advance every 20 seconds. You wouldn’t want to make up your mind about, say, the viability of the public option in US healthcare via such a method, but it’s a fun and lightweight way to manage presentations.

"Pecha Kucha was developed as a presentation format to allow design and creative types to share their passions and show off their work. The format is very tight. You have to present with 20 slides and each slide is shown for 20 seconds. It has the great advantage of keeping presentations short and concise – perhaps accounting for it’s popularity around the world. However, it’s challenging to prepare a good Pecha Kucha presentation and even more so to deliver it well.

From my observations, here are my tips :"

Melanie sez: In addition to unpacking a provocative topic (scary scary for many academics!) with insight, humour and heart, Robbins does so in a lively animated format that takes slide-sharing to a whole nother level. This is some phat loot for those of us looking to level up in the big battle that is technology adoption in education (and elsewhere - just change the titles and this would apply in any field). One of my favourite slides is near the end. It's about reconciliation and 'taking off armour' ... this battle isn't about winners and losers. T
