One of my students recently told me that she had a great fear of public speaking.  She was scheduled as part of a leadership practicum to give a formal presentation to a leadership team on a project that she had recently completed.  This student is certainly not alone in feeling anxious about doing a formal presentation.  Yet this is a critical skill for nurse leaders, who often have to present their ideas or new initiatives to staff or higher levels of management.  Leadership is all about communication.  An effective presentation can have a very positive impact in helping you as a leader to achieve your goals.

The 10 following tips will help you to give presentations like a pro:

1.  Begin with the end in mind

Prior to preparing your presentation, you should develop about 3-4 goals/objectives.  Most presenters either seek to inform or motivate an audience.  Ask yourself what you would like your audience to know as an outcome of your presentation.  A second key question is whether there is something you would like the audience to do differently as a result of your presentation.   Your goals should guide how you develop your presentation.  This guidance is important whether you are doing a 10 minute presentation to staff nurses, a one hour presentation to a professional group or a budget presentation to senior management.  When you state your goals at the beginning of your presentation, your audience has a clear idea about what to expect and it will guide how they listen to your content.

2.  Consider your target audience

One size does not fit all with presentations.  Understanding your target audience is very important.  Ask yourself how much background your audience has regarding your topic.  Should the presentation be a beginner level or more advanced.  Is your audience large or small.  What is their motivation for attending your presentation?

3.  Think carefully about how to present the content

The use of power point slides by speakers has become quite common.  Slides can be a very effective way of communicating, but they are not the only way.  For very short presentations ,where you have strict time limits, the use of technology can waste valuable time.  A short handout is often more effective.  If you do use slides, don’t cram too much material into your slides.  Use large fonts (30 points or more).  Choose the color of the background and content wisely so they can be read from a distance.

4.  Don’t read your slides – elaborate on them

The purpose of your slides should be to illustrate your key points.  Don’t be a slave to your slides.  Audiences lose interest when speakers stand up and read their slides verbatim.  If you are running out of time with your presentation, it is important to skip slides if needed to focus on your key points.  Always proof read your slides for spelling, grammar and content errors.

5.  Use story to illustrate a key point

The use of story  can be very powerful to both engage the audience and to help you make key points.  Story is not appropriate in every situation.  If you are a nurse leader giving a budget presentation to senior management, your presentation will need to be less emotional and more factual.

6.  Get the audience involved

The most successful presenters find ways to involve their audience. People like opportunity to react to presentations and express their viewpoints.  A great way to do this is to ask questions of your audience during the presentation such as:  How many of you have experience with this?,  Have you found this to be true in your experience working with your patients?,  Does this resonate or do you have a different viewpoint about what we are discussing?   Using interactive case scenarios to help teach key points can be very effective especially with smaller groups.

7.  Practice your presentation prior to giving it

Rehearsing your presentation in advance will help you to gain confidence as a presenter.  If you have an important presentation, you might want to consider asking one or more professional colleagues to sit through a rehearsal and give you feedback.  If you are using slides, you will want to take the time to go through your slides at least three times.  This will help you to become very comfortable with the content, and you will be less likely to read your slides.

8.  Dress to give you confidence and for the audience

First impressions are very important.  If you want to present yourself as an authority, you need to look the part.  This will also boost your confidence in yourself.  As a general rule of thumb, you should dress slightly better than your audience.

9.  Less is More

For most presentations, you will have a limited time frame to present your ideas.  Many presenters overwhelm their audiences with too much information.  This is ineffective.  Stick to your key points and be sure to leave 5-10 minutes for audience reaction and questions.  Be respectful of the audience’s time and don’t exceed the time you have been given to do the presentation.

10. Debrief with an attendee after the presentation

Doing presentations like a pro is a learned skill. You can learn a great deal by watching effective speakers.  You can also learn from either having yourself taped, or by asking a trusted attendee for feedback.  Even the most experienced speakers can exhibit ticks and tendencies that interfere with their presentations.  It is important that you are aware of any habits that could interfere with effective communication during your presentation.   If attendees formally evaluate your presentation, ask for a summary of the evaluations.  This will help you to learn what you have done well and areas for improvement.

With preparation and practice, you can learn to do presentations like a pro.  Accept the challenge when you are given the opportunity to present.  You will grow as leader and become influential with your colleagues.

Podium presentation tips

Preparation and engagement.

  • Presentation preparation requires organization, slide preparation, familiarity for technology, and practice.
  • Know your audience and engage them using appropriate strategies.
  • Plan for a powerful opening and a memorable ending.

Your professional organization has accepted your abstract for an oral presentation. Now what? How do you prepare? The following tips will help ensure an organized presentation that engages your audience. (See Helpful hints .)

Get organized

Organizing your presentation includes creating an outline and preparing your slides.

Create a presentation outline. Start with the major points, and then add subthemes. Keep in mind how much time you have to speak (you could have as few as 10 minutes or as long as an hour), and determine how much time you want to devote to each section. Here’s a sample presentation focused on professional advancement in nursing:

  • Overview: Career Planning and Development
  • Self-Assessment
  • Personal SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats)
  • Curriculum Vitae Review
  • Professional Roadmap

Slide structure

Slides help your audience understand and follow your content. Your first slide should include the presentation title, your name and credentials, and organization, as well as any other details required by the meeting organizer. Sequence the remaining slides based on the type of information you’re disseminating (original research, quality improvement [QI], innovation). For original research and QI projects, use the IMRaD approach:

  • I ntroduction (Use brief bullet points to show the significance or aim.)
  • M ethods (For a research study, describe the study design; for a QI project, describe the methodology used: Plan-Do-Study-Act, Lean/Six Sigma, Root Cause Analysis.)
  • R esults (Use graphs and tables, include participant characteristics and highlights of descriptive and analytic results.)
  • D iscussion (Interpret findings—how are they similar or different from existing evidence—study limitations, conclusions, recommendations.)

If you’re presenting on an innovation, organize slides into three sections: the need for the innovation (Why was it needed? What value does it have for stakeholders?), the innovation itself (What is the the new product, device, or process?), and the outcomes and implications (What’s the impact to the end user and the organization?).

You may be invited to speak on a specific topic related to conference objectives, such as improving patient care through nursing engagement or the nurse’s role in patient safety. Using a logical format, organize your presentation according to the key messages.

Slide creation

Now that you’ve determined the flow of your presentation, you’re ready to create the slides. Think about the amount of text per slide, the font size and colors, and the background. Use phrases or key points rather than full sentences on each slide. In addition to serving as a more effective visual, this format prevents you from reading slide content word for word. On average, presenters spend 2 to 3 minutes on each slide, so plan content length with this in mind. Some experts recommend the 2-4-8 rule: Every 2 minutes move to a new slide, with no more than 4 bullet points per slide, and no more than 8 words per bullet. Others recommend the 5×5 rule: no more than 5 words per line of text and 5 lines of text per slide.

Use an easy-to-read sans serif font, such as Arial or Helvetica, and remember the 36-28-28 rule for font sizes: 36-point title, 28-point heading, and 28-point subheading. If necessary, 24-point fonts also are acceptable. The font color should enhance readability, especially from a distance. For the background, use a neutral color. Many consider blue most effective. You want to keep it clean, professional, and uncluttered.

If possible, visit the presentation room early so you can assess the lighting. Be prepared to make adjustments if necessary. If you have a good amount of ambient light, dark text on a light background works best; the opposite (light text on a dark background) is true if you have low light.

Before your presentation

good nursing presentation topics

Whether this is your first or forty-first presentation, devote time to practice. Rehearsing allows you to catch errors and take advantage of opportunities for improvement. Practice your delivery and plan for a powerful opening. You can start and end with a meaningful and memorable story or ask a reflective question. Schedule a dry run with a family member or friend—request feedback and ask them to repeat key points to check presentation clarity. Another practice session with a trusted colleague who has good critical thinking skills can help ensure precise execution.

Choose professional attire that’s comfortable and promotes self-confidence. Audience members will note your appearance—it’s the first thing they’ll see before you begin your presentation.

Arrive for the presentation early. Most conferences have a speaker room where you can prepare before the presentation. If not, go straight to the presentation venue. Upon arrival, introduce yourself to the moderator, then test the microphone, video, and any web-based applications. If you encounter issues, notify the moderator or information technology personnel immediately.

This may seem obvious, but be sure to use the restroom before the presentation begins (especially if it’s 30 minutes or more). Also, make sure you have water on stage with you. The conference may provide this for you, but if not, bring your own.

The big day

Look at your audience, smile, and begin your presentation. Speak clearly and loudly enough for attendees in the last row to hear. Look around the room as you speak; don’t focus on one individual or section. Be confident in your delivery, and remember that you know what you’re talking about. If you’re presenting a research study, you’re probably the primary investigator or co-investigator, so that means you’ve mastered the content. If you’re presenting on a special topic, chances are you’re a subject matter expert.

If you encounter a heckler, address their questions to the best of your ability. If you don’t have the information, feel yourself getting flustered or frustrated, or the person is dominating the presentation, thank them for their level of engagement and that you look forward to speaking with them more after the presentation. Remain courteous, gracious, and appreciative.

good nursing presentation topics

Most presentations end with a question-and-answer session. Listen to each person’s entire question so you can understand the context. Repeat the question to make sure everyone heard it. If appropriate, engage with the audience by asking, “How about you?” or “What do you think?” If you want, provide your email address for any follow-up questions. After the presentation, stay in the room or close to the exit to network with audience members. (See Audience engagement .)

After the presentation, take 10 minutes (set a timer) to think about what you might improve or do differently. After the timer goes off, think only of the positives and own your success. Make constructive notes that you can use later to ensure that you continue to improve. Dwelling on what didn’t go well only serves to undermine your confidence and has no place in your journey to being a master presenter.

Stay in touch with the organizer. They’ll reach out to you for any post-event needs, to share evaluation results, and forward any questions they received about your presentation. Presenting to a live audience involves extensive preparation, but it’s a rewarding experience. Consider it an opportunity to build your credentials and to earn recognition as an expert in your field.

How to Make a Great Nursing Class Presentation

Rachel R.N.

  • April 30, 2024
  • How to Guides

Giving a presentation in your nursing class can be a daunting task, but it’s also an excellent opportunity to showcase your knowledge, communication skills, and professionalism.

Whether you’re presenting a case study, a research paper, or a topic overview, the key to success is thorough preparation and effective delivery. In this post, we’ll guide you through the process of creating and delivering a nursing class presentation that will leave a lasting impression on your classmates and instructors.

What You'll Learn

Planning Your Presentation

Choose a topic relevant to nursing that genuinely interests you. Your enthusiasm will make the presentation more engaging. Research your topic thoroughly using credible sources like academic journals and books. Take detailed notes to use later. Organize your information into a logical outline with key points and supporting details. Decide what visual aids (e.g. PowerPoint slides, handouts, models) would help convey your information.

Creating Visual Aids

Visual aids are crucial for capturing audience attention and reinforcing your main points. When making slides or handouts, use a large, easy-to-read font (e.g. Arial, Calibri, at least 28 point font). Limit text to concise bullet points rather than long paragraphs. Use simple, high-quality images, charts, and graphs to illustrate key concepts. Ensure good contrast between text and background colors. Be consistent with styling, colors, fonts, etc. across all visuals.

How to do Nursing Presentations like a Pro

Engaging Your Audience

A dry lecture will likely bore your classmates. Instead, try to get them involved. Open with an interesting fact, statistic, quote, or story related to your topic. Ask rhetorical questions to pique curiosity about key points. Use personal examples or case studies to illustrate real-world applications. Encourage participation by posing questions and allowing time for discussion. Move around and make eye contact with the audience rather than just reading your slides.

Practicing Your Delivery

Practicing is crucial for delivering a smooth, professional presentation. Time yourself going through all your material to ensure you stay within limits. Practice giving eye contact, speaking clearly, and avoiding filler words like “umm.” If using technology, test it beforehand to ensure slideshows, videos, etc. work properly. Consider doing a full run-through in front of a friend or family member. On presentation day, dress professionally to make a good impression.

Creating Effective Slides

Your slides should summarize and reinforce your main points, not just restate everything you’re saying. Use brief bulleted lists rather than long narrative paragraphs . Limit text to essential points – no more than 6-8 lines per slide. Left-align bullet points and make sure text is large enough to read. Use high-quality images, charts, graphs, and diagrams to illustrate key data. Keep consistent styling (font, colors, etc.) across all slides. Use easy-to-read fonts like Arial, Calibri, Verdana (sans serif fonts). Aim for a simple, clean, uncluttered layout on each slide.

Handling Nervousness

It’s normal to feel anxious about presenting. Practice repeatedly until you feel very familiar with the material. Remind yourself that nervousness is okay – the audience expects you to be a little nervous. Do deep breathing exercises before you start to induce calmness. Visualize giving a smooth, confident presentation. If you make a mistake, pause, correct it, and continue on confidently.

Question & Answer Period

At the end, leave time for questions so you can gauge audience understanding of your main points and clarify any concepts that audience members may have misunderstood. If you don’t know an answer, simply say “That’s a great question, I’ll need to look into that more.”

By following these guidelines, you can create and deliver an organized, engaging nursing presentation that showcases your knowledge. The more you practice this skill, the more confident and professional you’ll become.

1O Tips to Help You Make Nurse Presentations Like a Pro:

1. know your audience:.

Tailor your presentation to the specific needs and interests of your audience. Consider their level of understanding, background knowledge, and any particular concerns they may have. This will help you deliver information that resonates and engages effectively.

2. Start Strong:

Grab your audience’s attention from the beginning with a compelling opening. You could start with a relevant anecdote, a thought-provoking question, or a startling statistic. A strong opening sets the tone for the rest of your presentation and keeps your audience engaged.

3. Organize Your Content:

Structure your presentation in a clear and logical manner to ensure easy comprehension. Use headings, subheadings, and bullet points to break down complex information into digestible chunks. A well-organized presentation makes it easier for your audience to follow along and retain key points.

4. Use Visual Aids Wisely:

Incorporate visual aids such as slides, diagrams, and charts to enhance your presentation. Visuals can help clarify complex concepts, reinforce key points, and keep your audience engaged. However, avoid overcrowding your slides with text or graphics, and ensure that your visual aids complement rather than overshadow your verbal presentation.

5. Practice, Practice, Practice:

Rehearse your presentation multiple times to become familiar with your material and build confidence. Practice speaking clearly and confidently, and pay attention to your pace and tone of voice. Practicing also allows you to refine your delivery and identify any areas that may need improvement.

6. Engage Your Audience:

Encourage interaction and participation throughout your presentation to keep your audience engaged and actively involved. Ask questions, facilitate discussions, or incorporate interactive elements such as polls or case studies. Engaging your audience not only enhances their learning experience but also makes your presentation more memorable.

7. Be Prepared for Questions:

Anticipate questions that your audience may have and be prepared to address them effectively. Familiarize yourself with the subject matter and relevant literature to provide well-informed answers. If you’re unsure about a question, don’t hesitate to acknowledge it and offer to follow up with more information later.

8. Maintain Professionalism:

Dress appropriately, maintain eye contact, and exude confidence throughout your presentation. Projecting professionalism not only enhances your credibility as a presenter but also instills confidence in your audience. Remember to speak clearly, articulate your words, and avoid distracting mannerisms.

9. Seek Feedback:

After your presentation, solicit feedback from colleagues, mentors, or peers to gain valuable insights for improvement. Constructive feedback can help you identify strengths to leverage and areas for growth to address in future presentations. Don’t be afraid to ask for feedback—it’s an invaluable tool for professional development.

10. Reflect and Learn:

Take time to reflect on your presentation experience and identify lessons learned. Celebrate your successes and acknowledge areas where you can improve. Use each presentation as an opportunity for growth and continuous learning, and strive to refine your skills with each subsequent opportunity.

By implementing these tips, you can elevate your nursing presentations to a professional level, effectively communicate your expertise, and make a lasting impact on your audience. With practice and dedication, you’ll become a master presenter in no time.

Best Nursing Research Topics for Students

Writing a research paper is a massive task that involves careful organization, critical analysis, and a lot of time. Some nursing students are natural writers, while others struggle to select a nursing research topic, let alone write about it.

If you're a nursing student who dreads writing research papers, this article may help ease your anxiety. We'll cover everything you need to know about writing nursing school research papers and the top topics for nursing research.  

Continue reading to make your paper-writing jitters a thing of the past.

A nursing research paper is a work of academic writing composed by a nurse or nursing student. The paper may present information on a specific topic or answer a question.

During LPN/LVN and RN programs, most papers you write focus on learning to use research databases, evaluate appropriate resources, and format your writing with APA style. You'll then synthesize your research information to answer a question or analyze a topic.

BSN , MSN , Ph.D., and DNP programs also write nursing research papers. Students in these programs may also participate in conducting original research studies.

Writing papers during your academic program improves and develops many skills, including the ability to:

  • Select nursing topics for research
  • Conduct effective research
  • Analyze published academic literature
  • Format and cite sources
  • Synthesize data
  • Organize and articulate findings

About Nursing Research Papers

When do nursing students write research papers.

You may need to write a research paper for any of the nursing courses you take. Research papers help develop critical thinking and communication skills. They allow you to learn how to conduct research and critically review publications.

That said, not every class will require in-depth, 10-20-page papers. The more advanced your degree path, the more you can expect to write and conduct research. If you're in an associate or bachelor's program, you'll probably write a few papers each semester or term.

Do Nursing Students Conduct Original Research?

Most of the time, you won't be designing, conducting, and evaluating new research. Instead, your projects will focus on learning the research process and the scientific method. You'll achieve these objectives by evaluating existing nursing literature and sources and defending a thesis.

However, many nursing faculty members do conduct original research. So, you may get opportunities to participate in, and publish, research articles.

Example Research Project Scenario:

In your maternal child nursing class, the professor assigns the class a research paper regarding developmentally appropriate nursing interventions for the pediatric population. While that may sound specific, you have almost endless opportunities to narrow down the focus of your writing. 

You could choose pain intervention measures in toddlers. Conversely, you can research the effects of prolonged hospitalization on adolescents' social-emotional development.

What Does a Nursing Research Paper Include?

Your professor should provide a thorough guideline of the scope of the paper. In general, an undergraduate nursing research paper will consist of:

Introduction : A brief overview of the research question/thesis statement your paper will discuss. You can include why the topic is relevant.

Body : This section presents your research findings and allows you to synthesize the information and data you collected. You'll have a chance to articulate your evaluation and answer your research question. The length of this section depends on your assignment.

Conclusion : A brief review of the information and analysis you presented throughout the body of the paper. This section is a recap of your paper and another chance to reassert your thesis.

The best advice is to follow your instructor's rubric and guidelines. Remember to ask for help whenever needed, and avoid overcomplicating the assignment!

How to Choose a Nursing Research Topic

The sheer volume of prospective nursing research topics can become overwhelming for students. Additionally, you may get the misconception that all the 'good' research ideas are exhausted. However, a personal approach may help you narrow down a research topic and find a unique angle.

Writing your research paper about a topic you value or connect with makes the task easier. Additionally, you should consider the material's breadth. Topics with plenty of existing literature will make developing a research question and thesis smoother.

Finally, feel free to shift gears if necessary, especially if you're still early in the research process. If you start down one path and have trouble finding published information, ask your professor if you can choose another topic.

The Best Research Topics for Nursing Students

You have endless subject choices for nursing research papers. This non-exhaustive list just scratches the surface of some of the best nursing research topics.

1. Clinical Nursing Research Topics

  • Analyze the use of telehealth/virtual nursing to reduce inpatient nurse duties.
  • Discuss the impact of evidence-based respiratory interventions on patient outcomes in critical care settings.
  • Explore the effectiveness of pain management protocols in pediatric patients.

2. Community Health Nursing Research Topics

  • Assess the impact of nurse-led diabetes education in Type II Diabetics.
  • Analyze the relationship between socioeconomic status and access to healthcare services.

3. Nurse Education Research Topics

  • Review the effectiveness of simulation-based learning to improve nursing students' clinical skills.
  • Identify methods that best prepare pre-licensure students for clinical practice.
  • Investigate factors that influence nurses to pursue advanced degrees.
  • Evaluate education methods that enhance cultural competence among nurses.
  • Describe the role of mindfulness interventions in reducing stress and burnout among nurses.

4. Mental Health Nursing Research Topics

  • Explore patient outcomes related to nurse staffing levels in acute behavioral health settings.
  • Assess the effectiveness of mental health education among emergency room nurses .
  • Explore de-escalation techniques that result in improved patient outcomes.
  • Review the effectiveness of therapeutic communication in improving patient outcomes.

5. Pediatric Nursing Research Topics

  • Assess the impact of parental involvement in pediatric asthma treatment adherence.
  • Explore challenges related to chronic illness management in pediatric patients.
  • Review the role of play therapy and other therapeutic interventions that alleviate anxiety among hospitalized children.

6. The Nursing Profession Research Topics

  • Analyze the effects of short staffing on nurse burnout .
  • Evaluate factors that facilitate resiliency among nursing professionals.
  • Examine predictors of nurse dissatisfaction and burnout.
  • Posit how nursing theories influence modern nursing practice.

Tips for Writing a Nursing Research Paper

The best nursing research advice we can provide is to follow your professor's rubric and instructions. However, here are a few study tips for nursing students to make paper writing less painful:

Avoid procrastination: Everyone says it, but few follow this advice. You can significantly lower your stress levels if you avoid procrastinating and start working on your project immediately.

Plan Ahead: Break down the writing process into smaller sections, especially if it seems overwhelming. Give yourself time for each step in the process.

Research: Use your resources and ask for help from the librarian or instructor. The rest should come together quickly once you find high-quality studies to analyze.

Outline: Create an outline to help you organize your thoughts. Then, you can plug in information throughout the research process. 

Clear Language: Use plain language as much as possible to get your point across. Jargon is inevitable when writing academic nursing papers, but keep it to a minimum.

Cite Properly: Accurately cite all sources using the appropriate citation style. Nursing research papers will almost always implement APA style. Check out the resources below for some excellent reference management options.

Revise and Edit: Once you finish your first draft, put it away for one to two hours or, preferably, a whole day. Once you've placed some space between you and your paper, read through and edit for clarity, coherence, and grammatical errors. Reading your essay out loud is an excellent way to check for the 'flow' of the paper.

Helpful Nursing Research Writing Resources:

Purdue OWL (Online writing lab) has a robust APA guide covering everything you need about APA style and rules.

Grammarly helps you edit grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Upgrading to a paid plan will get you plagiarism detection, formatting, and engagement suggestions. This tool is excellent to help you simplify complicated sentences.

Mendeley is a free reference management software. It stores, organizes, and cites references. It has a Microsoft plug-in that inserts and correctly formats APA citations.

Don't let nursing research papers scare you away from starting nursing school or furthering your education. Their purpose is to develop skills you'll need to be an effective nurse: critical thinking, communication, and the ability to review published information critically.

Choose a great topic and follow your teacher's instructions; you'll finish that paper in no time.

Hi everybody and welcome back to another Vlog.

My name is Claire Carmichael and I'm a third and final year student Nurse.

Welcome to my channel if you're new and don't forget to subscribe if you haven't subscribed yet. This Vlog is all about poster presentations or presenting in general. And just how to survive that because I know it's one that most people hate most people hate public speaking.

0.28 The fear of presentations

It's a common fear that we have students coming into Nursing and thinking "oh my God, I'm going to do presentations" because we are assessed on this at University.

Whether that's changing with the new standards, I'm not a hundred percent. But at the minute we do poster presentations at Birmingham City University and PowerPoint presentations.

So yeah, it is a requirement for us (unfortunately!)

So hopefully I can give you some tips and advice to survive it and it's not going to be too scary for you fingers crossed, but I shall do my best.

Upload or create your CV on Nurses.co.uk. Our CV building tool is designed specifically for UK healthcare. Use it to apply for jobs and get hired.

So my first tip I'm going to give you is a tip that I was given in a workshop that I went to and they said something that was actually quite obvious but I didn't really think of it until they mentioned it which is really strange

So I'm going to pass on this information to you because it really really helped me.

So what they said was when you yourself are going to watch somebody speak, so a conference for example, or even other poster presentations that you're sat watching… you as a person are not judging them on the way they're standing, or the way the speaking, you’re not mocking them you’re not doing anything like that.

You’re probably sat there thinking about your dinner, your workload, who you've got a message from, what emails you've got to send, what your girlfriend or boyfriend or kids are doing… your mind is elsewhere. It's not fully on the talk or conference or presentation.

And to be honest if your attention is fully on it, you're so intrigued in what they're saying, you're not thinking about anything else. You're just listening to the information they're giving, the PowerPoint slide...

You’re not judging them as a person. So why are you judging yourself, or thinking it, or over thinking that other people are judging you on this because they're not - no one's judging, you no one's going to mock you, no one’s going to laugh at you if you trip up.

In fact, some people won't even notice if you stutter.

So it's just quieting those voices, those judgmental voices you've got in your head but shouldn't be there. Completely erase them now! Take them away! Get rid of them!

My next tip is all about quieting those anxious voices that might be in your head telling you you're going to be rubbish, you’re going to fail, you’re going to stutter, your hearts going.

You're breathing's going, you're panicking, you’re sweating.

This is the big tip for you!

Again from a workshop that I went to something that was taught to was was to sort of take a minute before you get up there, before you stand there.

But it's sort of a tip that you can sort of do as you're standing there as well quietly in your own head.

My next tip is all about that strong power pose. So that by doing the power pose before a presentation or sometimes in the morning, if you're feeling a bit anxious maybe or unconfident, doing the power pose (so the, you know, like the Superman pose put your hands on your hips stand tall, head up, stand proud doing that sort of thing) apparently releases endorphins and just gives you that little bit of confidence.

So before you go on to your presentation, go into the toilet and do this (you don’t have to do it in front of everybody!) but going to the toilet do it looks off in a room somewhere alone stand there. Do your power pose. Say 'I am brilliant!' 'I’m going to smash this!' 'I'm going to do this!' I've got this! Talk to yourself.

Shout out loud if you want to, if it helps! Just do your power pose for a minute and just feel confident, feel good in your own skin and just smash it.

And my next tip is probably an obvious one: practice. I know, it's sometimes hard to fit in, you're going to make excuses, you don't want to practice, you're going to do everything but practice...

But you really, really need to practice your poster presentation or your PowerPoint presentation or your talk or whatever you're going to do.

You need to practice.

Furthermore, conferences provide opportunities to interact with professionals who can guide your career. Consider these events as platforms for networking and showcasing your passion and dedication to nursing.

The Evolving Landscape of Nursing Conferences

Nursing conferences have long been a cornerstone of professional development, offering a unique platform for practitioners, researchers, and students to come together, share insights, and forge collaborations. As the healthcare industry undergoes rapid transformation, driven by technological advancements and changing patient demographics, the nature and focus of these conferences are also evolving.

Emerging Trends in Nursing Conferences

With the rise of telehealth and electronic health records, conferences are increasingly focusing on the role of technology in nursing, from digital tools for patient care to the use of data analytics in research.

  • Interdisciplinary Collaboration

Recognizing that healthcare is a team effort, modern nursing conferences often feature sessions that promote collaboration with professionals from other disciplines, such as pharmacists, social workers, and even tech specialists.

Burnout and mental health issues are prevalent in the nursing profession. Contemporary conferences are dedicating sessions to address these challenges, offering strategies for resilience, self-care, and mental well-being.

Maximizing Your Conference Experience

  • Active Participation

Don’t just be a passive observer. Engage in discussions, ask questions, and share your own experiences and insights.

Conferences offer a golden opportunity to build your professional network. Connect with peers, mentors, and potential collaborators.

  • Stay Updated

Post-conference, review the material shared, reflect on the sessions you attended, and explore any recommended readings or resources. Staying updated ensures that you integrate the latest knowledge and best practices into your nursing practice.

  • Hands-on Workshops

Many conferences offer workshops where you can gain practical skills. Participate in these sessions to get a more in-depth understanding of specific techniques or tools.

  • Feedback and Reflection

After the conference, take some time to reflect on what you’ve learned and how it applies to your work. Additionally, provide feedback to the conference organizers. Your insights can help improve future events.

Leveraging Conferences for Career Advancement

Attending conferences can be a catalyst for your career growth. Here’s how:

  • Present Your Work

If you’re involved in research or have unique experiences to share, consider submitting your work for presentation. It’s a great way to gain visibility in the nursing community.

  • Seek Mentorship

What does a perfect day with the family look like?

Imagine a day filled with laughter, shared meals, and playful adventures. Waking up refreshed, a family connects over breakfast, sharing dreams and creating plans. They explore together, be it a museum visit or a quiet picnic, finding joy in nature, or friendly competition. As the sun sets, reflections filled with gratitude paint the evening, solidifying the love and connection that makes the day perfect, not for its grandeur but for the simple treasures of being together.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

When asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” children explore a world of possibilities. Each child has unique dreams, from doctors to astronauts, artists to veterinarians. Their dreams may change as they grow, but nurturing their curiosity helps them find their true calling.

What’s one habit you want to eliminate and one you want to keep?

Aiming for personal growth, I’ll axe the time-sucking social media scroll and double down on the mood-boosting, energy-zinging exercise routine. Recognizing habits are key, I’ll actively fight for a more balanced and fulfilling life, one mindful step at a time.

How to Present to an Audience That Knows More Than You

  • Deborah Grayson Riegel

good nursing presentation topics

Lean into being a facilitator — not an expert.

What happens when you have to give a presentation to an audience that might have some professionals who have more expertise on the topic than you do? While it can be intimidating, it can also be an opportunity to leverage their deep and diverse expertise in service of the group’s learning. And it’s an opportunity to exercise some intellectual humility, which includes having respect for other viewpoints, not being intellectually overconfident, separating your ego from your intellect, and being willing to revise your own viewpoint — especially in the face of new information. This article offers several tips for how you might approach a roomful of experts, including how to invite them into the discussion without allowing them to completely take over, as well as how to pivot on the proposed topic when necessary.

I was five years into my executive coaching practice when I was invited to lead a workshop on “Coaching Skills for Human Resource Leaders” at a global conference. As the room filled up with participants, I identified a few colleagues who had already been coaching professionally for more than a decade. I felt self-doubt start to kick in: Why were they even here? What did they come to learn? Why do they want to hear from me?

Nursing Topics for Research plus Ideas

good nursing presentation topics

Writing a good nursing essay, term paper, or research paper begins by finding a list of good nursing research topics and then narrowing it down to a specific topic that interests you the most and aligns with your assignment instructions.

For most nursing students, finding the best nursing topics for research can be challenging and confusing. From our interaction with thousands of students, we have realized many dread choosing a nursing research paper topic when given a chance.

In fact, they prefer being given a list of nursing research paper topics they can choose from, which they suppose makes work easier for them, but that's never the case.

Choosing a good topic is part of the assessment; you must do it well because it can either break or make your final nursing school grade .

You are assigned to write on specific nursing topics when the professor wants you to understand the nursing concepts. We have your back if you are after the best nursing research topics. In this blog article, we have highlighted a list of different nursing topics you can select from for any nursing paper you will be assigned and let you have the freedom to choose a topic on your own. If you are looking for a guide on writing a nursing paper, check our guide for writing a nursing research paper and the blog post on how to write a nursing essay .

We also have advanced guides on writing capstone projects, dissertations, and QI reports; go through them and write a digestible nursing research paper that gives you a maximum score. But first, let's dive into the various topics in nursing you can write a paper about.

Steps for Selecting a Good Nursing Research Topic

Before we go into the details of the research topics in nursing, it would be wise to highlight some of the steps you need to take to identify the best topic. When assigned to write a paper, use these steps to select the best topic:

  • Read the assignment instructions to identify whether you have a predetermined list of nursing topics or can choose one on your own;
  • If you are allowed to select a topic of your choice, begin by identifying the nursing research area you are passionate about;
  • Brainstorm for ideas on this specific area by referring to the course readings, class notes, previous class assignments, nursing topic examples online, and past nursing papers submitted by the cohorts before yours;
  • Narrow down to three main topics by researching your nursing research ideas and eliminating the ones that don't fit the scope of the paper;
  • Again do an elimination based on your research to identify a manageable (has a lot of scholarly resources), engaging, and suitable nursing topic for your nursing paper, and
  • Research widely to identify the best sources to use when exploring your research paper in detail, then write your nursing paper.

As you choose a nursing topic, always remember the following:

  • to pick a topic that falls within your area of interest or the scope of the course;
  • select a topic that you can share as many details without forcing yourself or getting bored;
  • choose a topic that has plenty of credible peer-reviewed nursing sources;
  • the topic should be unique and unexplored, or if it is explored, select a new perspective or approach;
  • the topic should be relevant, fresh, explorative, engaging, meaningful, and original;
  • the topic should be flexible so that you can research and form arguments;
  • focus on topics with concepts, frameworks, or ideas from class;
  • if stuck, ask for help selecting a topic from your instructor or peers;
  • don't choose a topic that is too broad or too narrow; choose a manageable topic;
  • Prioritize considering the latest, current events, or trending nursing research topics so that you can solve issues as they arise in practice.

These tips also apply to nursing research project topics.

14 Practical Tips to Improve Your Presentation Skills

  • The Speaker Lab
  • May 11, 2024

Table of Contents

Ever felt complete dread and fear at the thought of stepping up to deliver a presentation? If so, you’re not alone. The fear of public speaking is more common than you might think, but with the right presentation skills , it’s a hurdle that can be overcome.

In this article, we’ll help you master basic confidence-building techniques and conquer advanced communication strategies for engaging presentations. We’ll explore how body language and eye contact can make or break your connection with your audience; delve into preparation techniques like dealing with filler words and nervous habits; discuss tailoring content for different audiences; and much more.

Whether you’re prepping for job interviews or gearing up for big presentations, being prepared is key. With adequate practice and the proper attitude, you can crush your speech or presentation!

Mastering the Basics of Presentation Skills

Presentation skills are not just about speaking in front of a crowd. It’s also about effective communication, audience engagement, and clarity. Mastering these skills can be transformative for everyone, from students to corporate trainers.

Building Confidence in Presentations

Becoming confident when presenting is no small feat. But fear not. Even those who feel jittery at the mere thought of public speaking can become masters with practice and patience. Just remember: stage fright is common and overcoming it is part of the process towards becoming an effective presenter.

Taking deep breaths before you start helps calm nerves while visualizing success aids in building confidence. Also, know that nobody minds if you take a moment to gather your thoughts during your presentation—everybody minds more if they cannot understand what you’re saying because you’re rushing.

The Role of Practice in Enhancing Presentation Skills

In line with old wisdom, practice indeed makes perfect, especially when improving presentation skills. Consistent rehearsals allow us to fine-tune our delivery methods like maintaining eye contact or controlling body language effectively.

You’ll learn better control over filler words through repeated drills. Plus, the extra practice can help you troubleshoot any technical glitches beforehand, saving you the sudden panic during your actual presentations.

Remember that great presenters were once beginners too. Continuous effort will get you there sooner rather than later.

Body Language and Eye Contact in Presentations

The effectiveness of your presentation can hinge on more than just the words you say. Just as important is your body language .

Impact of Posture on Presentations

Your posture speaks volumes before you utter a word. Standing tall exudes confidence while slouching could signal nervousness or lack of preparation.

If there’s one lesson to take away from our YouTube channel , it’s this: good presenters know their message but great ones feel it through every fiber (or muscle) of their being. The audience can sense that energy when they see open body language rather than crossed arms.

Maintaining Eye Contact During Your Presentation

Eyes are often called windows to the soul for a reason. They’re communication powerhouses. Making eye contact helps build trust with your audience members and keeps them engaged throughout your speech.

Avoid staring at note cards or visual aids too much as this might give an impression that you’re unprepared or uncertain about your chosen topic. Instead, aim to maintain eye contact between 50% of the time during presentations. This commonly accepted “50/70 rule” will help you exhibit adequate confidence to your audience.

If stage fright has gotten a hold on you, take deep breaths before you start speaking in order to stay calm. Make sure that fear doesn’t disrupt your ability to maintain eye-contact during presentations.

If body language and eye contact still feel like a lot to manage during your big presentation, remember our golden rule: nobody minds small mistakes. It’s how you handle questions or mishaps that truly makes a difference—so stay positive and enthusiastic.

Preparation Techniques for Successful Presentations

Presentation skills are like a craft that requires meticulous preparation and practice. Aspects like visual aids and time management contribute to the overall effectiveness of your delivery.

The first step towards delivering an impactful presentation is research and organization. The content should be well-researched, structured logically, and presented in simple language. This will make sure you deliver clear messages without any room for misinterpretation.

Dealing with Filler Words and Nervous Habits

Nervous habits such as excessive use of filler words can distract from your message. Luckily, there are plenty of strategies that can address these issues. For instance, try taking deep breaths before speaking or using note cards until fluency is achieved. In addition, practice regularly to work on eliminating these verbal stumbling blocks.

Avoiding Distractions During Presentations

In a digital age where distractions abound, maintaining focus during presentations has become an even more crucial part of the preparation process. This video by motivational speaker Brain Tracy provides insights on how one could achieve this level of focus required for effective presentations.

Maintaining Confidence Throughout Your Presentation

Confidence comes from thorough understanding of the chosen topic combined with regular practice sessions before the big day arrives. Make use of note cards or cue cards as needed but avoid reading from them verbatim.

Taking control over stage fright starts by arriving early at the venue so that you familiarize yourself with the surroundings, which generally calms nerves down considerably. So next time you feel nervous before a big presentation, remember—thorough preparation can make all the difference.

Engaging Your Audience During Presentations

Connecting with your audience during presentations is an art, and mastering it can take your presentation skills to the next level. Making the message conveyed reach an emotional level is essential, not just conveying facts.

Understanding Your Target Audience

The first step towards engaging your audience is understanding them. Tailor the content of your presentation to their needs and interests. Speak in their language—whether that be professional jargon or everyday slang—to establish rapport and ensure comprehension.

An effective presenter understands who they’re speaking to, what those individuals care about, and how best to communicate complex ideas understandably.

Making Complex Information Understandable

Dense data or complicated concepts can lose even the most interested listener if presented ineffectively. Breaking your key points down into manageable chunks helps maintain attention while promoting retention. Analogies are especially useful for this purpose as they make unfamiliar topics more relatable.

Audience Participation & Questions: A Two-Way Street

Incorporating opportunities for audience participation encourages engagement at another level. It allows listeners to become active participants rather than passive receivers of knowledge.

Consider techniques like live polls or interactive Q&A sessions where you invite questions from attendees mid-presentation instead of saving all queries until the end.

This gives you a chance not only engage but also address any misunderstandings right on spot.

  • Treat each question asked as an opportunity—it’s evidence someone has been paying attention. Even challenging questions should be welcomed as they demonstrate an engaged, thoughtful audience.
  • Encourage participation. It can be as simple as a show of hands or the use of interactive technologies for live polling during your presentation. This keeps your audience active and invested in the content.

Remember, your presentation isn’t just about putting on a show—it’s about meaningful interaction.

Presentation Skills in Specific Contexts

Whether you’re nailing your next job interview, presenting an exciting marketing campaign, or delivering insightful educational content, the context matters. Let’s take a look.

The Art of Job Interviews

A successful job interview often hinges on effective communication and confidence. Here, the target audience is usually small but holds significant influence over your future prospects. Body language plays a crucial role; maintain eye contact to show sincerity and interest while open body language communicates approachability.

Bullet points summarizing key experiences are also helpful for quick recall under pressure. This allows you to present your chosen topic with clarity and positive enthusiasm without relying heavily on note or cue cards.

Pitching in Public Relations & Marketing

In public relations (PR) and marketing contexts, presentations need to capture attention quickly yet hold it long enough to deliver key messages effectively. Visual aids are valuable tools here—they help emphasize points while keeping the audience engaged.

Your aim should be highlighting presentation benefits that resonate with potential clients or partners, making them feel as though ignoring such opportunities would mean missing out big time.

Educational Presentations

An educational setting demands its own unique set of presentation skills where deep understanding trumps flashy visuals. You must make complex information understandable without oversimplifying essential details—the use of analogies can be beneficial here.

Keeping the audience’s attention is critical. Encourage questions and participation to foster a more interactive environment, enhancing learning outcomes for all audience members.

Tips for Becoming a Great Presenter

No single method is suitable for everyone when it comes to speaking in public. However, incorporating continuous improvement and practice into your routine can make you an exceptional presenter.

Tailor Your Presentation to Your Audience

Becoming an excellent speaker isn’t just about delivering information; it’s also about making a connection with the audience. So make sure that you’re taking setting, audience, and topic into consideration when crafting your presentation. What works for one audience may not work for another, so be sure to adapt your presentation styles according to the occasion in order to be truly effective.

The Power of Practice

The art of mastering public speaking skills requires practice —and lots of it . To become a great presenter, focus on improving communication skills through practice and feedback from peers or mentors. Try to seek feedback on every speech delivered and incorporate those pointers in your future presentations. Over time, this cycle of delivery-feedback-improvement significantly enhances your ability to connect with audiences and convey ideas effectively.

If you’re looking for examples of good speakers, our speech breakdowns on YouTube provide excellent examples of experienced presenters who masterfully utilize speaking techniques. Analyzing their strategies could give you great ideas for enhancing your own style.

Finding Your Style

A crucial part of captivating any audience lies in how you deliver the message rather than the message itself. Developing a unique presentation style lets you stand out as an engaging speaker who commands attention throughout their talk. Through — you guessed it — practice, you can develop a personal presentation style that resonates with listeners while showcasing your expertise on the chosen topic.

Your body language plays a pivotal role here: open gestures communicate confidence and enthusiasm towards your subject matter, two qualities essential for keeping audiences hooked. Similarly, using vocal variety adds dynamism to speeches by emphasizing points when needed or creating suspense during storytelling parts of your talk.

Cultivating Passion & Enthusiasm

Showcasing genuine passion for the subject helps keep listeners engaged throughout even lengthy presentations. Sharing stories related to the topic or expressing excitement about sharing knowledge tends to draw people in more than mere data recitation ever could.

Recognize that everybody is distinctive; don’t expect identical results from every speaker. The path to becoming a great presenter involves recognizing your strengths and working tirelessly on areas that need improvement.

Utah water forecast appears good headed into summer

good nursing presentation topics

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's water forecast is looking good headed into hot summer months.

In a presentation to the Legislative Water Development Commission on Tuesday, Utah Division of Water Resources Director Candice Hasenyager said our snowpack remains strong even with hotter temperatures forecast. Roughly 95% of Utah's water supply comes from snowpack.

"Overall looking really good across the state, and another huge benefit is our reservoirs are full — or about full — we’re about 90% of our statewide average," she told the commission.

Hasenyager said she did not have concerns right now about spring runoff. Some reservoirs are spilling right now, while Lake Powell still remains below average.

With reservoirs so full, local water districts are being pressured to send more downstream to help prop up the Great Salt Lake . The lake itself has risen more than five feet thanks to strong winters, but remains several feet below what is considered ecologically healthy.

In his own presentation, Great Salt Lake Commissioner Brian Steed said he expected the lake's water levels to drop again as we head into the summer. On Tuesday, one lawmaker defended his colleagues in the face of criticism about the Great Salt Lake .

"We poured a ton of money into the Great Salt Lake and we’ve acquired water and so on and so forth," said Rep. Carl Albrecht, R-Richfield. "There’s really one person that can throw a level of the Great Salt Lake and that’s somebody that lives upstairs. So I'm kind of sick and tired of the environmentalists telling us what we should do with the great salt lake. We’re doing a whole lot."

This article is published through the Great Salt Lake Collaborative, a solutions journalism initiative that partners news, education and media organizations to help inform people about the plight of the Great Salt Lake—and what can be done to make a difference before it is too late.
