Presentations are no longer just for the `experts' and outside consultants. The need for training on how to make winning presentations is greater than ever in this information age. I know of no other resource that is this comprehensive in its offering of useful content that relate to making top notch presentations. Besides being an indispensable resource for those who are new to staff development, this book also is a MUST for veteran presenters like myself. . . . I will immediately begin to apply the practical suggestions offered in this resource. Garmston really knows the realities of presenting to teachers and his suggestions work! -- Lori Oczkus, literacy coach; popular speaker across the United States; author of "Reciprocal Teaching at Work: Strategies for Improving Reading Comprehension" and "Super Six Comprehension Strategies: 35 Lessons and More for Reading Success"
