One of the most important things about a good presentation is the ability to put complex information in a form that is easily understood. Rather than use a long table, this author presents World per capita GDP in the form of a map.
Take a good look at the Pacific Rim. Note that Japan and Australia stand out among the others. Even more amazing is that Japan and the actual populated portion of Australia are tiny slivers of land, compared the economic wreck of the other countries, okay China and India are in the news but this demonstrates just how far behind they are at this point. As Greenspan notes in Turbulence, free market economies work, planned ones don’t. So why are all the politicans in this country plannning our rescue?
But I digress. As you read different article and we make presentations in class, start noticing the better presentations of data. Attempt to incorporate the successful ones in your presentations.
