皙Presentation

combines both verbal and visual
elements. It is the way we illustrate our message on
paper.

皙Presentation

is often called the plus one Trait as
it is not always included as one of the traits or
qualities of effective writing.
Presentation
In informal
writing,
presentation
is not
imperative.

However, all published
writers are aware of the
importance of presentation,
particularly technical writers
who must include graphs,
maps, symbols, and visual
instructions along with their
text.
Ways to practice the trait of
Presentation:
皙Write

in ways that mirror real life. (newspapers, pamphlets,
websites, books of their own, brochures, newsletters, and flyers)
皙Create

works for a variety of audiences. Be prepared to
explain how the presentation changes depending on the
audience.
皙Present

your work, especially research projects. Include
PowerPoint and other presentation tools to share your ideas
with others.
皙These

suggestions use higher levels of Blooms taxonomy;
they are also meaningful and engaging.
