Are all training resources prepared and details regarding the training addressed? What appropriate activities need to be developed?
Training Development
The Learners
Training Design
Design
Trainer Notes: Detailed explanation with questions from students and trainer Class Discussion: Conversation with questions posed to elicit thoughtful responses from learners Games: Competitive activities that allows learners to test their knowledge and skill in the subject. Small Group Exercises: 4-6 people answering questions or solving problems together
Role Plays: Smaller groups designed for more intense discussion and problem solving
Design (Contd.)
Instructional Plan: An instructional plan is a map that outlines the design of your training module and includes the following
Participant Requirements
Instructional Material and Aids needed
Logistical Issues
Content Outline, including: Major Topics to be addressed Brief description for each topic Identification of learning methods used
10
Development
Consider the following while developing content for the module: Have you taken into consideration primary content, i.e. one-to-one conversations/personal experiences/feedback? Have you provided enough information and learning experiences for trainees to accomplish the stated learning outcomes?
11
Development (Contd.)
A training module is built on a series of carefully designed learning experiences. When developing learning experiences, consider the following: Develop learning experiences based on a specific learning outcome The learning experience should be appropriate to the learning domain as well as for accomplishing the learning outcome Use a variety of learning experiences Allow for questions and student-to-student interaction in each learning experience Consider the constraints in facilitating each learning experience

Effective Tips
1. Preparing the information: The first task is to determine what you have to teach and how youre going to teach it
Figure out the skills you need to teach.

2.
Creating the class: Now that you know what you need to deliver, you have to decide how to convey the information
Design your presentation.
Ideally, use PowerPoint to design your presentation, take the time to write it down or type it up, making sure to double-space your lines for easy reading.
14
Effective Tips
Read through the presentation as though you had never learned these skills before.
Make notes for additions, changes, screen shots, etc.
Make sure that the font you use is large, minimum 16, and in an easy-to-read font, such as Calibri/Times New Roman, so that you can glance at it quickly and find it easy to follow.
A picture is worth a 1000 words. Use appropriate pictures which depict what you want to say

INTRODUCTION
A Power Point is designed to help you achieve a consistent look in your slide presentations. You want your audience to focus on the message and not be distracted by poor and inconsistent design from one slide to the next. You can achieve this consistency by using Templates, or pre-designed slide presentations, that coordinate background colors and designs, font styles and placement, and other graphic design elements. Through a Power Point presentation, you as a trainer have the power to control the subject and also ensure that the audience sees what you want them to see and agree with your perspectives and your points of view
18
ABOUT TEMPLATES
A good common use for templates is putting a border with the company's name and logo on every slide in the Master layout.
19
Every slide presentation is based on a slide master of some sort. The slide master determines, for example, which font appears on each slide and how it is to be formatted.
20
Here, all Ive done is to put the date, Name of the Company and footer in the appropriate areas and added smiley's. (Hardly 3 minutes work). Similarly you can add clip arts, graphics, etc. to beautify your presentation.
22
WATERMARKING
To Watermark an image. Click on the Image, Go to Format, Click on Recolor and click on Washout. Also there are other options like shadow, grayscale, etc. which can be used, depending on the nature of your presentation
23
BACKGROUNDS
Gradient Fill Texture Fill Pattern Fill Picture Fill
To get these backgrounds you need to right click on a vacant area in your slide and click on format background, where you will find various background effects
24
To choose the option of Custom Animation, Click on Animations and Click on Custom Animation. You can then choose what kind of Animation you want
25
EXIT
Blinds
Checkerboard
EMPHASIS
Grow/Shrink
26
To change the Custom Animation you need to click on the Picture/Text Box on the right and click on Change

CONCLUSION
A Power Point presentation needs to look neat and presentable Use pictures and animation wherever required. (Not too much Animation) Do not overlap text on Images, because it may look shabby. Also, the text may not be readable, if overlapped over the Image. A perfect mixture/proper blend of thought and expression in the presentation is a great combination. Thus, a Power Point presentation will help you express your thoughts in a better way
