What makes a presentation interesting?

It starts with...

• your topic!

Voorbeelden van sterke onderwerpen:

• Ziektes / aandoeningen / syndromen

After brainstorming about your topic

• Prepare your  outline
  
• Basic structure:
  Introduction
  Middle section
  Conclusion

Introduction: what's in it? 

• Goal of the presentation
