Try to talk about something for 10 minutes

For this assignment, write about a problem you encountered at work.

In the early days, some comrades mentioned that at work, you must first be a veteran employee and master all the knowledge and skills required for work.

How to teach this knowledge to peers is a new challenge for these employees.

Recently, I served as a judge and reviewed two trial lectures for front-line employees.

Here I will briefly talk about common problems that everyone has.

First: Appearance. Every front-line employee noticed the attire. But the demeanor is far behind. The most basic requirement is that when teaching, you should face the judges and the students.

As a result, many students in the trial lecture either lowered their heads to look at the PPT on the computer, or turned their heads to look at the PPT on the projection. From the beginning to the end, the teaching subjects were not allowed to see the true face.

Second: the selection of materials should be small and comprehensive. The trial lecture time requirement is 10 minutes. However, the PPT for front-line employees can be more than 20 pages or even 30 pages. In fact, just by looking at the title and outline, I can roughly tell how long it will take to cover the content in depth.

How many words can be said in 10 minutes? About 200-250 words per minute, so the maximum content designed in 10 minutes is 2,500 words. How long should I talk about on that page of PPT? It should be at least 2 minutes. So it usually takes 5-7 pages to complete (including the cover and closing remarks).

This brings up a problem. It is absolutely impossible to cover a large and comprehensive subject matter. For example, the topic "Anti-Electricity Theft Management" includes relevant rules and regulations, methods of electricity theft, methods of finding electricity thieves, and treatment of electricity thieves. For me, each sub-item can be discussed for a long time.

So I suggest you choose a sub-item, or even a sub-item of sub-items, which must be the one you are most familiar with.

Third, speaking speed. The common problem is speaking too fast, too soon. It's faster when you're nervous. Let me introduce a technique: after each sentence, pause for 3 seconds.

Fourth, write a speech. In this review, I can probably make a conclusion within 2 minutes of the trial lecture, and my opinions are very consistent with those of the other reviewers.

This shows that it is very important to open the mouth. The first sentence of the test speaker basically shows his demeanor and his familiarity with the content.

The advice given is to write a speech, write down every sentence you want to say, and carefully polish the content of the first three minutes.
