Small Group Presentations to an Audience

• Panel Discussions

– A panel discussion is basically a conversation in  front of an audience.

• When you participate in a panel discussion, keep in  mind that you should prepare for the presentation  much as you would for any public communication  event

• Each panel member should plan to participate as  evenly as possible

• Symposium Presentations

– A symposium is much more structured than a  panel discussion.

• Each speaker gives an uninterrupted speech on one  portion of the topic

– Each speaker should coordinate his or her presentation   with the others in order to ensure that all the important  aspects of the topic are covered.

Small Group Presentations to an Audience—Practical Tips

• Leonard and Swaps (1999) offer the  following insights with regard to group  problem solving:

– The early stage of problem solving requires divergent  thinking

– Once the ideas are identified, the second phase of  problem solving requires convergent thinking

– It is important to balance the needs for divergent and  convergent thinking

– Too little divergent thinking results in shallow analysis 

of the problem and too few alternatives for  consideration

• Leonard and Swaps (1999) . . . (continued)

– Too little convergent thinking results in lack of focus  and follow through

– Too much divergent thinking has the same result as too  little convergent thinking

– Too much convergent thinking results in what is 

commonly referred to as groupthink.

• Forum Discussions

– Forum discussion is a format in which audience  members have an opportunity to ask questions  and or to comment on the speaker or speakers’ 

presentations.

• One of the important aspects of a forum is to allow  all points of view to be heard
