Presentation software
Presentation software is a powerful tool that helps your students create and deliver visually engaging presentations by combining text, images, videos, and multimedia elements to communicate their ideas effectively. Within case study teaching, especially during the Disputation and Collation phases, it plays a vital role in enhancing student participation and structuring complex content.
In the Disputation phase, presentation software allows students to clearly present their arguments and evidence, supporting structured discussions and encouraging active engagement from the entire group. In the Collation phase, it helps them organise and summarise key findings, integrating individual or group contributions into a coherent final analysis.
Case studies often involve multi-layered, challenging problems—and that’s where presentation software truly shines. These tools enable students to synthesise and summarise key points, making their reasoning more accessible and compelling. Visuals such as diagrams, timelines, or comparison tables can simplify complex ideas, benefiting not only the presenters but also their peers—especially those who are more visually oriented.
As students prepare and present their case study findings, they learn to structure arguments logically, visualise evidence effectively, and communicate persuasively. This process helps them deepen their understanding of the case while developing essential digital, technical, and creative competencies—skills that are increasingly valuable both inside and outside the classroom. Presenting to their peers with a well-organised, visually appealing presentation can also boost their confidence and sense of achievement.
