Dynamics of effective oral presentations. Strategies for nurse educators.
Oral presentations can and should be exciting events for learners and educators. Inservice faculty members who are new educators have a plethora of sources that they can use to develop and refine their presentation skills. Just as individuals learn to read by reading and write by writing, staff instructors learn to teach well by teaching. Focus on developing your teaching versatility by combining strategies, because varying methods will appeal to learners' different learning styles. Whether you are a novice or seasoned teacher, you can constantly improve your teaching skills. When you execute an effective presentation, everyone wins. You experience and enjoy your own professional growth, and learners benefit from quality educational experiences. The most important benefit of effective presentations is that surgical patients receive competent care from well-informed, up-to-date clinicians.
