Benefits of Presentation Media
Presentation media are vehicles for supporting the message you are delivering to your audience. For example, an engineer presenting a short course on advanced composites for machine components and mechanical systems might use a computer presentation to graphically illustrate the advantages of composites over conventional materials. Processes might be shown by DVD, and models might be used to show sample parts. Also, the engineer might opt to distribute printed reference materials, as well as recommended readings.
