Presenting a paper or other research results at a professional conference can be very rewarding. If you are a scientist, educator, business leader or other professional, this may be a powerful way for you to share ideas with others in your field. You need to find a topic that interests you, locate a conference that is accepting papers, and apply. If you get your paper accepted, you then need to prepare carefully for your presentation
Find a conference that interests you. The first step in presenting your paper is finding an appropriate conference. If you are already a member of a professional organization, then this may be easy. Check the website of your organization to see if they are sponsoring a conference in the near future. Otherwise,

Conferences often operate on a tight schedule, and you cannot afford to overrun your allotted time.[9]
Know your presentation format. This is another item that should be made clear to you in the acceptance letter. You will need to know if you are presenting your paper to a large conference room as a keynote speaker, or if you are one of three presenters sharing a small space and time. If the acceptance letter does not answer any questions you may have, you should call the organizers and ask.[10]
• Presentation formats may include small workshops, large keynote addresses, round-table discussions, or general research reports.[11]
Familiarize yourself with the expected audience. Review the conference website and study information about the sponsoring organization to understand the style that they expect. Many conference sites will include links to materials from prior years. These can be valuable sources of information as you prepare.[12]
Know your technology. Verify what technology will be available for your presentation. Do not assume that you will have access to Wi-Fi, for example, if you rely on Internet links as part of your presentation. If you are preparing a slide show, make sure that you are using a program (PowerPoint, Prezi, Latex, and Beamer, for example) that the host system will support
Practice your presentation. You must be thoroughly prepared and present yourself as professionally as possible, especially if you hope to be asked to
I will need to use Information Technology to produce this presentation because of the various programmes or softwares in the ICT subject; these programmes can be expressly useful in showing a good layout of what I want to produce in the which the Powerpoint application is the best option, particularly for this upcoming event called the BCS Women App-a-thon which I am working on.

This about you, what you want to accomplish with the presentation and how you are going to attain the goal of getting them “there.” Make sure your goal is an achievable challenge. At this point your goal becomes your big idea. This is where it becomes about the audience. You want the audience to change to your side basically, whether it is to your opinion, to buy a specific product, or to implement a new idea. The big idea is how you get them to change, how you get them from “here” to “there.” Most presentations look like a squiggly line, veering off in different direction with radical turns throughout. You need to make a straight line approach, the most effective path. Your objective is to effectively get the audience to change, you are not there to be interesting. Always remember to use the rule of three, it has worked in literature, comedy, and in memories. Simply put people are more likely to remember things in threes. For a presentation you must consolidate it down to three concepts.
To make the presentation look professional and attractive, I would be using as many different types of information as possible, such as pictures, charts, sound, videos, tables and of course text and numbers.
Content selection should be abreast with knowledge of audience expected from the scientific presentation. Each slide should be self-contained and must not require external support for understanding. There are two ways to cut down presentation time: Visual is worth a thousand words and helps saving time for explaining in depth details of a project especially numerical data. One should put applicable content on slides because what matters most is the amount of information you caused to be absorbed by attendee. The Q&A is significant, the audience must gain freedom to engage with speaker and ask questions for better perspective of the talk. Contents should reflect critical analysis of evidences supported by research findings. Furthermore, Credibility can be established through what audience perceive by the presenter’s evidence.
Create a 5-6 minute presentation using PowerPoint visuals. Make sure your PowerPoint follows the guidelines discussed in class. The purpose of the presentation should be to inform the audience. Your presentation should reflect a topic, theme, or issue relevant to your major. For ideas of topics, you may consider looking at issues of Crains’ Chicago, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, cnn.com, The Huffington Post, NPR.org, Slate, Wired, or industry-specific papers/journals in your area of study.
5. Arrange IT equipment to be made available for presentation. This could be either through your company if they have the available resources. If not, they may be available already in the meeting rooms you have booked or you could us a 3rd party.

I ensured whilst I made my presentation that I spoke clearly and steadily. I have a tendency to talk quickly so I paid particular attention to controlling the speed of my voice. I also ensured I maintained eye contact with my audience and tried not to focus just on one individual.
Make sure you find the major points from your research that you really want the audience to know and hit them with interesting facts that support it!
Presentations are common at college level. For the past month or so I observed several group presentations about different topics of Shakespeare era. Also, I presented with my group. The presentations were about topics that not many people knew by heart. It required a bunch of research and time in order to come up with a nice pronation
Credibility is essential when communicating in the business world. When trying to establish credibility before a presentation, it is important to research your material. When making a presentation, try to make sure you know your subject and what you are presenting. A speaker should be well planned. Another strategy is making sure you plan your presentation with the audience in mind. While during the presentation, it is important to make sure the speaker is transparent as possible. Try not to allow make the audience feel comfortable. Also, try not to belittle or talk down to the audience. After the presentation, be sure to respond to the audience’s question.
