Analysis
After working on your hand-out, answer the following questions:
What are the good features of a hand-out?
- Easy to follow
- Short bullet point format
- Your presentation should follow the same order (so that it is easy to understand what you are saying)
- Subtitles make it easier to read
- Put keywords in bold type
- Make sure that all the important points of your presentation are on the handout
- Don't include too much info (otherwise it can become cluttered)
- Your topic should be easily recognizable
- Best if it is only one side of a sheet of paper
Which of these features are present in the hand-out I made?
What difficulties, if any, did you encounter in making the hand-outs? How did you overcome them?
For me, probably the arrangement of the text and images because sometimes both mix up. Take time to arrange it properly and use some sense of creativity.
What tips can you give teachers regarding preparation of hand-outs?
Of course, make sure to follow the good features of hand-outs. Keep it simple and brief. Plan the design of your handouts well. Students should have a copy of the handouts available after discussion.
