Identify and explain the five factors you need to consider in order to select the right presentation aid

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: The five factors that need to be considered in order to select the right presentation aid are:
1. Consider your audience. The age, interests, and attitudes of your audience should affect your selection of audiovisual support.
2. Estimate the size of the audience. Choose presentation aids that everyone will be able to see clearly.
3. Think of your speech objective. Don’t select a presentation aid until you have decided on the purpose of your speech.
4. Evaluate your own skill and experience. Use only equipment with which you are comfortable or have had practical experience.
5. Know the room in which you will speak. If the room has large windows with no shades and no other way to dim the light, do not consider using visuals that require a darkened room.
