LESSON PRESENTATION
The presentation deals with how well you are prepared to teach and how well you deliver the
material. While personal characteristics will vary between instructors, everyone can use several
tools of the trade to enhance the effectiveness of the lesson. The evaluator will judge your
presentation based on the following factors:
Lesson Plan Personalization
n Personalize every lesson. Simply highlighting the existing material is not enough.
IB Make sure you have the approval of your course supervisor or some other
command-designated authority for your personalization.
Classroom And Materials Are Ready For Training
m Make sure the classroom is physically ready for the student to receive training; that is,
seating arrangements are adequate; training equipment is in good working condition and
available as required; materials such as transparencies, slides, and charts are accurate and
in good working condition.
Information Technically Accurate
m Ensure the technical accuracy of information you present. Only an evaluator who is a
subject matter expert in the area of instruction will complete this category.
Cover Major Discussion Points
n Follow the teaching points as approved in the lesson plan. Do not omit or skip material.
Do NOT Read From The Lesson Plan
n When you must read an important point, also teach it for emphasis.
n Use the lesson plan as a guide, NOT as a book to be read to the students. Excessive
reading from a lesson plan may indicate a lack of preparation or confusion with the
subject matter.
Transition And Chain Material Effectively
l Use transition statements that allow you to move through the lesson smoothly.
Transitions signal to the students that you are progressing to a new point.
l Chain material (that is, tie it together) in a meaningful manner. Link material previously
taught with the present material, or link the present material with what will be taught
later.
