Presenting Findings: Visual
Presenting information visually is a valuable communication skill, and it takes a lot of work to create a visual that effectively communicates information and arguments to others. Here are some points to keep in mind regarding visual presentations.
NOTE: When creating visual works, it is common that you will use visual assets (e.g., photographs, drawings, clip art, etc.) from others. Make sure that you have rights to use assets and provide attribution, as required legally and requested by your teacher.
Visual presentations may also involve writing and/or talking to further explain your visuals and the point that you are communicating.
The tools for presenting visually are not limited to the possibilities shared below. Feel free to seek out and recommend other creative ways to visually represent your research findings
Having slides accompany a presentation is a common way to share research findings. However, that doesn't mean you have to settle for developing slides the same way that they did back in the 1990s! Try creating dynamic slides to bring your research findings to life!
Infographics give you practice creating images that represent research findings, allowing you to create graphics that represent processes, relationships, arguments, and more.
Just consider how much thought and planning is required to create an image like the one comparing Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan!
