This section shares different materials on organising the structure of your presentation three different levels: macro (the overall structure), meso (introduction and closing parts of your speech), and then at the micro-level (transitions, signposting).

You are not required to watch these videos or read the materials. However, these are useful and can supplement any gaps you feel exist in your presentation skills set.
