Having identified your objective ,
outline it in a single line, and then proceed. This way you are more focused on you target.
Identify the need of the audience
Try to determine what information the audience needs. Whether they are your fellow students, professors, local business people, or your friends. In some cases the level of information might be high , while in others it may be low. Design your presentation accordingly. Don’t tell them everything you know, but what they should know.
