One of the things that we use during a presentation is sequence. While there are many different ways we can sequence items, there are some things you need to be aware of.
Generally in a presentation, the first thing we apply sequence to is in the contents section of our presentation. The average number of items in the contents of a presentation is between three and six.
Lets look at a sample contents page of a presentation:
In the above slide, there are three items. You will also notice that one of the items includes four sub-items.
Let's look at an example of how we can voice this page to the audience using sequence.
...I have divided my presentation into three parts. The first part is about why we should recycle, the second part will explain the types of recyclables, including, plastics, paper, metals and other types of recyclable materials. In the final part of my presentation I provide information on how to recycle...
Highlighted are the sequencial words and phrases - first part, second part and final part. Here we are using the words first, second and final.
Some other words used in sequence are:
Firstly, Secondly, Thirdly,
First of all, Second of all, Third of all,
Then, Next, And Then, And Next,
After that, Next comes,
Finally, Lastly
In the second part we will look at using sequence for a larger list of items and general tips for using sequence.
