Presentation Development and Improving Presentation Skills Using iFlipTips

By Hannah B. TechEditor – London-England

Good business presentation skills are crucial. We use them in our careers and our personal lives, and utilize these skills even when we might not realize it. Developing your presentation skills can have a positive impact on many different areas of your life and, for that reason; it’s beneficial to improve your presentation skills, even if public speaking isn’t a key part of your job role right now.

iFlipTips is a study and training app for iPad and iPhone that revolutionizes the way we deliver and absorb information. As well as being an invaluable tool for students of all subjects, iFlipTips can also help you when you’re teaching yourself new skills. The app avoids the traditional text-based learning style, and instead focuses on providing you with a variety of tools to help you create flashcards that increase your learning speed and help you retain and recall more information in less time.

The iFlipTips app is divided into three sections: iFlip-Slides iTips-Ideas cards and iFlipCards. Each card contains four different formats: text, image, audio, and video, so you can record and store information using different mediums. When studying and improving your presentation skills, you can use these different formats to learn new skills more efficiently.

If you’re working to improve your presentation skills, the best place to start is to evaluate where you are at the moment. iFlipTips helps you do this, as you can record yourself giving a staged or real presentation using the audio and video functions. Doing this can help you identify and improve aspects of your presentation, such as your body language and tone of voice.

The ability to record videos and audio clips means you can also capture snippets of public speakers and presenters you admire, and use the recordings to compare their style to your own practice sessions. Watching other successful public speakers, you can identify what you enjoy about their delivery, and attempt to reproduce that in your own presentations.

As you develop your skills, recording yourself can also help you prepare for live public speaking engagements. Thorough preparation helps you gain confidence in your ability to give an engaging and interesting presentation. Practice is the key to success, and using the iFlipTips video function, you can simulate what it feels like to have a live audience.

The text function can help you make key notes about presenting skills, for example that you should never start with an apology unless you’ve made an error, and that you should always credit the source of quotes you use. By saving these “notes” in ordered folders, you can easily refer back to them later to remind yourself of key messages and tips.

As well as helping you improve your presentation skills, you can also use iFlipTips to keep you on track during presentations. Use iTips-Ideas cards to outline the structure of your presentation, and record key quotes and facts you want to remember in the text box. If you want to, you can also share your notes with others via email, Facebook or Twitter directly through the app.

If you plan to include a question and answer session at the end of a presentation, the iFlipCards can help you prepare. Create a separate “question” card for each question you anticipate being asked, and then create an ideal response on the “answer” card. Avoid memory blanks and feelings of panic, and instead enjoy confidence in knowing that you’ve prepared as thoroughly as you can.

Study Planning Using Study App for iPhone and iPad

Posted on by
Reply

Creating a study plan gives you greater confidence and improves your organization. Mapping out the different subjects you have to learn, and their deadlines, also enables you to study more thoroughly for exams, as you can prepare for each test in advance rather than trying to cram all the information in at the last minute.

Each student has their own way of studying, so each individual’s study plan will be slightly different. Here are a few tips to help you create a study plan that is tailored to your needs and will help you achieve the results you want in your exams.

Make a list

Write down all the subjects you need to study, as well as the date of the relevant exam. If your exams are close together, you should aim to have done all your studying by the time the first exam arrives; otherwise you can afford to start studying for the some exams now, and leave others until a later date.

Be logical

Having made your list, you might be tempted to simply start studying for your upcoming exams in order of test date. To gain the best results, however, you should order the subjects starting with those that leave you feeling least confident, and save those feel most comfortable until last. You should also think about what grade you want or need to achieve for each exam. If you need all As, you’re going to have to put in more study time than if you just need a pass, so this will affect your study plan.

Make time

Take a calendar and map out times you’re available to study. Try not to over commit yourself as this will be stressful in the run-up to your exams. Instead, be realistic and include any existing commitments in your scheduling. Depending on how many exams you have and how much time you have to study, you should aim for around 2-4 hours of studying per day.

Start early

As well as starting your studying well before the exam period, you should also try to get as much studying done as possible early in the day. It is much better for your motivation levels if you can fit in 2-3 hours of study by lunchtime, rather than leaving it all until the evening.

Create smart notes

Use the iFlipTips app to create study notes that work. These digital flashcards help you memorize information in bite-sized pieces, improving memory retention and your ability to recall information. The more you break information down into smaller chunks, the more likely you are to remember what you’ve learned.

Include breaks

Every study plan should include time for breaks. We can only concentrate for around 30 minutes at a time, so if you carry on studying beyond this you’re unlikely to remember what you’re learning as thoroughly as you would if you took a break. Schedule in five to 10 minute breaks every half an hour to give you a chance to get a drink, stretch and relax.

Be gentle

If you’re finding it difficult to stick to your study plan, be gentle with yourself. This can be frustrating, especially if you’re under a lot of time pressure to learn what you need to know quickly. Try not to beat yourself up about slipping from the plan, and instead think about why you slipped. Are you trying to make yourself learn too much in a short time period, or are you giving yourself enough breaks? Go back to your study plan, make adjustments then start again.

“iFlipTips is a revolutionary study and note-taking app from TECHtionary for iPhone and iPad. Easy to use, versatile and effective, this app helps students cut down their learning time by increasing memory retention and improving their information recall.

You can record information on each ‘card’ in four different formats: text, image, audio and video. The app works directly with your iPhone’s recording devices, so you can take pictures and create audio and video clips directly from the app, as well as using existing files in your photo library or voice memos. Using these different formats means that students can tailor iFlipTips to their learning style. Whether you find it easier to learn through writing, watching, hearing, or with visual aids, you can create study notes that work for you.

As well as note-taking and studying, iFlipTips is also useful for a range of other activities, such as preparing talks, creating catalogues, maintaining customer service records, and a variety of uses in the business world. The latest version of the app has the addition of iFlipSlides, which enables you to create slideshows from your flashcards. With this added feature, the app is now divided into three parts: iFlipCards, iFlipSlides and iTips-Ideas Cards.

iFlipCards

iFlipCards contain digital flashcards in a question and answer format. Simply write the question on one side of the card, then ‘flip’ it to reveal the answer. These cards are perfect for testing what you’ve learned when studying for exams. They can also help public speakers prepare for talks, and can be used during group training.

iFlipSlides

Each slide can contain text, audio, video and an image, and you can reorder the slides in each folder as many times as you need until your presentation is perfect. All slideshows are saved to your device, so this is a helpful way of creating slides and presentations while away from your computer.

iTips-Ideas Cards

The iTips-Ideas Cards are useful for creating notes and making records. It’s quick and easy to make study notes using these, so you can even do this during lessons and save yourself some study time later.

Other features

You can share all cards via email, Facebook and Twitter, enabling you to send your notes and ideas to friends, family, clients or fans. Although video and audio files are notoriously difficult to send over email, the app includes URL links to the files instead of attaching them to the message, so you can send your notes in an instant, without cluttering up the recipient’s inbox!

Each section of iFlipTips has its own folders system. Using this, you can organize your notes into your own customized filing system, so they are easily retrievable when you need them the most.

Useful for students and professionals alike, iFlipTips is a must-have app for your iPhone and iPad” – Eva (pictured).

Studying for Exams Using iFlipTips Study Buddy App for iPhone and iPad

Posted on by

Testing what you know is a key part of the study process, and doing so helps you identify where you have gaps in your knowledge. Creating tests to use on yourself is also a helpful way of consolidating what you’ve already learned, as the act of thinking about and writing questions in itself can help you further understand the information.

Although testing yourself is always helpful when studying for exams, certain methods and techniques will help you prepare more thoroughly. Here are some tips that will help you make the most of self-testing:

Use the iFlipTips app

iFlipTips is a study app from TECHtionary that enables you to create digital flashcards. The app is useful throughout the study process; however one section in particular can help you test your knowledge.

The iFlipCards question and answer cards let you test yourself on what you’ve learned in a variety of ways. You can create questions using text, audio, video, and images, before ‘flipping’ the card and entering a pre-prepared answer. The different formats allow you to prepare for different types of exam. As well as written exams, for example, the iFlipTips’ audio and video capabilities enable you to prepare for complex examinations too.

When testing yourself using iFlipCards, simply read out the question card, verbalize or write down your answer on a separate sheet of paper, then flip the card to reveal the correct answer.

Thanks to its multiple formats, you can use iFlipCards to rehearse taking multiple choice tests. The app’s flexibility means it is also helpful for preparing answers to essay questions. To practice mock essays in an exam environment, simply use the question card as a prompt, complete your essay, then turn over to the answer card to see the pre-prepared list of points you need to cover to attain a high mark in the exam. Compare this list to your essay to look for gaps in your knowledge and notice where you could improve.

Make it fun

Despite its reputation, studying doesn’t have to be boring! You can make your self-testing more interesting by creating puzzles, crosswords and quizzes. Although this might not sound very helpful, the more you enjoy a subject, you more likely you are to remember it, so these kinds of exercises could actually aid your learning.

Use different formats

Testing your knowledge is the perfect opportunity to get used to the question formats you will see in your exams. When creating your own self-tests at home, always use the same kind of formats you’ll find in the exam itself as this will help you get used to what you can expect on the big day.

This is especially helpful if you are studying for exams in multiple subjects at the same time, as you can practice switching between different answer formats. For example, an English exam will contain mostly essay questions, while a Biology exam will contain a lot of short answer and diagram-related questions. You can give yourself more of a chance of performing well in each exam by testing your learning using similar formats.

Reward yourself

Studying can be tough, especially if you have an intense exam period on the horizon. Since preparing for exams is stressful, make sure you reward yourself when you do well on self-testing. Not only will this help boost your confidence, but rewarding yourself with a treat will also give you an incentive to perform better in self-tests in the future too.

iFlipTips  newest additions is called iFlipTipsPro and has a iFlipTips Calendar and multicolor notepads/iDoodleGrams called iFlipPads are perfect ways to adhere to a schedule and manipulate pictures and images for a variety of note uses.  The ideas tool is useful for organizing and tracking notes, and other academic related activities. Use it to organize contacts of people you meet during your study or research, reminders or just creative drawings which can be shared via Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter or email.
