Pecha Kucha |
|
Organization name |

Author |
Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham |
|
Main Methodologies |
Pecha Kucha presentations were born out of the need to minimize and enliven regular 20-minute presentations in the field of architecture and design. Since the slides in a Pecha Kucha are automatic, the presenter must be well-organized in order to capture the message of each slide in the allotted time. |

Give a brief summary/description of the best practice. (maximum 100 words) |
PechaKucha (Japanese for “chit chat”) is the fastest-growing storytelling site in the world, with millions of users. PechaKucha is what “Show and Tell” has always aspired to be. There are 20 slides in all. Each slide gets 20 seconds of commentary. That is everything there is to it. Simple but efficient. Creating genuine links. PechaKucha is an excellent instrument for sharing interests and imparting wisdom. In less than 7 minutes, global innovators use the PechaKucha platform to create strong, visually compelling stories that move audiences. |

|
Impact on beneficiaries |
Thousands of published research papers at CORE – the world’s largest collection of open-access research – reference PechaKucha’s positive impact on learning, speaking, and communication. |
|
Methods |
Pecha Kuchas use more visuals, such as photographs, pictures, or graphics, than standard 20-minute PowerPoint presentations, which have a higher text-to-image ratio. Owing to time constraints, the text is typically not used or is sometimes avoided completely. There is also no reading from the slides permitted, so the presenter has to be more engaged in their presentation and engaging to their audience. |

Storytelling with using cards or dices |

Main Methodologies |
Good public speaking necessitates the use of stories. It offers additional information and mental visuals that bring otherwise boring, distant, or complex topics to life for the audience. Speakers may tell personal stories that relate to the audience’s perceptions, thought processes, or beliefs by using stories. Furthermore, including stories in both interpersonal contact and public speaking aids the audience’s memory of your comments or voice. Sometimes it may be even difficult to remember your own stories, or with the stress, you may confuse the order. Therefore, Dixit cards or story dice will help the speakers connect, recall, or make up the stories easily in this practice. |
|
Give a brief summary/description of the best practice. (maximum 100 words) |
In this practice, the speaker will learn how to use stories before and during the speaking. Every person has a lot of stories or experiences to share. Stories and life experiences will connect the speaker to the audience; they will feel more relaxed and carry on their speech comfortably. Before speaking, the speaker will think about the experiences and stories they have had. We will make it easier for the speaker to help with the ‘River of life’ activity. In this activity, the speaker will see ups and downs and turning points in their life. They may connect them to the topic of discussion. After that, they will be practicing with Dixit cards and story dice to create a story, or he/they can connect their accounts to the cards or pictures. That will make them deliver their speech efficiently and effectively. They will be comfortable, and the audience or learners or colleagues will feel engaged and interested. |
|
Aim/s of the best practice: |
Not only do stories allow you to offer more effective and unforgettable experiences to the audience, but they also make it easier for the speaker to deliver them. People are all born storytellers, and when people say stories, they smile, display passion, and exude genuineness. -Authenticity is not only entertaining and convincing, but it also makes the speakers feel more at ease and secure when they are up there just being themselves. -Fear of making a mistake or failing to say something is a common source of stage fright. It doesn’t take much memorization or practice to tell a story, particularly a personal one; the speaker already knows it and has probably told it dozens of times. Even if the speakers don’t have a story to tell, they will be using the cards or story dice to create a story. That will be insurance for the speakers, and they will not be worried. -The speaker is most likely to be anxious or stressed at the start of the talk, but it is also the moment they must hook the audience. Humans conversationally tell stories: we smile, use good body language, make eye contact–everything that helps listeners trust us. If the speaker begins the presentation in this manner, they eliminate the possibility of anxiety or presentation nervousness taking hold of them. Instead, their audience begins to offer positive feedback right away; when the speaker notices them smiling, reacting, looking engaged, and leaning forward in their seats as they listen to the story, the speaker’s Confidence will eventually grow. |

Ralph C. Smedley |

Main Methodologies |
It is a worldwide network of clubs that teaches public speaking and leadership skills. |
|
Give a brief summary/description of the best practice. (maximum 100 words) |
In a regular meeting, the Toastmaster of the Evening, or meeting host, selects a theme to set the tone for the evening. Then four people each give a four- to a ten-minute presentation on a subject of their choosing (allocated time depends on how many speeches you have given in the club). Members and visitors take a 15-minute break after listening to the prepared speeches to drink tea or coffee and get to know one another. We will all benefit from being able to improvise on the fly. Members and visitors will practice their improvisation skills in the “dreaded” (but still entertaining) “Table Topics” segment. |

-Enhance your public speaking abilities. -Develop your leadership abilities. -Make the most of your abilities. -Enjoy unrestricted personal growth. -Work on networking in a small, friendly environment. -In a group environment, practice writing speeches and giving presentations. -Get a leg up on the competition at work. -Develop self-assurance and self-awareness |
