How to: Kiosk Presentations


What’s a “Kiosk” Presentation?  

  • A “Kiosk” presentation is a presentation without a presenter. 

  • The audience views a presentation at a computer screen (PowerPoint).

  • The full message of the presentation is communicated solely through written word, images and music.  

What message is communicated?  

 “Kiosk” Presentations communicate the essence of a literary work by revealing the impression it left on the presenter (you). People who encounter your presentation will walk away knowing what kind of reading experience they might have if they read the same literary work.

 

What's in a kiosk presentation featuring text connections? 

In addition to the title slide and works cited slide, each kiosk presentation must meet the following criteria:

 •Identify and include at least three (3) different text connections (any combination of “text to self”, “text to text” or “text to world”) which communicate the main impression this literary work left on you as the reader.

 • At least one (1) image for every text connection.  Each image must enhance and expand upon the text connection.

•Inclusion of music which enhances and expands upon the meaning of the presentation as a whole.  

•A minimum amount of additional text to establish a context for connections and the presentation as a whole. The goal is to communicate fully with as few words as possible. This presentation is not an "essay" on a slide. 

•Slides must be organized to reveal a logical progression/sequence of ideas.
