Maintain eye contact with your students, and you’ll get instant feedback on how interested they are in the interactive presentation.

How to Choose a Great Presentation Topic in 5 Steps

120 presentation topic ideas, 5 presentation tips.

How to Choose a Great Presentation Topic. Be novel. Begin with the end in mind.

4. Choose an appropriate presentation style.

There are many ways to present a topic. Your personality, the topic at hand, and your audience’s personas will help you determine which style would best fit you and your audience.

Select a presentation style that will communicate the main idea clearly and have a lasting impact on your audience.

For instance, explore a freeform style presenter by Sir Ken Robinson.

5. Engage with your audience.

Work on your presentation skills to make a strong connection with your audience, get through to them and leave a mark.

Think of the presenter as the link between the topic and the audience. A strong or a weak presenter can make a difference between a presentation being a thriving success or a boring failure.

Hone your skills by engaging and interacting with your audience. Make them feel like a part of the presentation and not just spectators. 70% of marketers have found presentations with interactive content to be more effective than those without.

Here are a few ways you can make your presentation interactive:

  • Start your speech with uncommon questions to your audience. Involve them from the get-go, like ask to raise their hands if X.
  • Make eye contact to build credibility and show confidence. Don’t stare at your slides or notes. Smile occasionally and talk to the audience directly.
  • Have an active and confident body language. Don’t stand in the same place the entire time. Move around the stage.
  • Don’t be monotonous. Speak as you would to a colleague — with enthusiasm.
  • Ask close-ended questions in between to keep the audience engaged without losing time. Address them using their names to keep things interesting.
  • Share personal experiences and stories that your audience will find fascinating and relatable.
  • Practice thoroughly before you present so you’re fluent with the material and delivery.
  • Energy and excitement can be quite contagious. Make sure you exude enough to spread some to your audience.

Feeling Inspired Yet?

Now you have all the right ingredients for choosing amazing topics and a hundred ideas to drive inspiration from. So, go ahead and start cooking presentations that will blow your audience away.

Don’t forget to choose a super-relevant topic and add meaty information. Do it with excitement to make it enjoyable for you and your audience. Best of luck!

If you’re looking for good topics for presentations, you’ve landed on the right page. In this article, you’ll find plenty of good presentation topics, tips on choosing the most suitable topic for you, and essential design elements to make your presentation a success. 

Many factors go into an excellent presentation. You need to have confident body language and engage your audience to hold their attention. You also need eye-catching visual aids like images, data visualizations, GIFs, and others (all of which you can find in Prezi ), not to mention a great opening to grab attention and a strong closing line to stay memorable. However, the most essential aspect of your presentation is the topic. It’s the core of your presentation, so it has to be strong, insightful, attention-grabbing, and appealing to yourself and your audience in order to evolve into a successful presentation everyone will love.

How to choose a good presentation topic

There are millions of topics you could create a presentation on, but what defines a good topic? If you’re struggling to either come up with a good topic for a presentation or you can’t decide between multiple ones, here are a few questions you should ask yourself before choosing a topic. 

What’s the goal of your presentation? 

When you’re choosing a topic, consider the meaning behind it. Ask yourself what the purpose of talking about this topic is, and what you want to say about it. Whatever topic you choose to present, the conclusion needs to provide a takeaway or lesson you want to communicate to your audience. A meaningful goal will make your presentation more memorable.  

Are you interested in the topic?

If you’re not interested in the topic, others won’t be curious either. Interest, enthusiasm, and passion enrich your presentation and are noticeable when presenting. Interest shines through and inspires others to find the topic as fascinating as you do. Think about the last time you saw someone sharing something they were passionate about – their excitement drew people in to pay closer attention to what they were saying. 

When choosing a topic, you need to find it or a particular angle of it interesting for yourself. For example, perhaps you’re not a pop music enthusiast, but you’re passionate about studying cultural phenomena. In this case, you can talk about pop music’s influence on early 2000s youth culture. 

Will your audience find this topic relatable? 

While you have to find the topic you’re presenting interesting, you also have to think about your audience. When choosing a subject, consider your audience’s background in terms of demographics, interests, culture, and knowledge level about the topic. Think about what others will find fascinating and relevant, so they’re not bored or confused during your presentation.

Do you have prior experience or knowledge about this topic?

Personal experiences are always great to share in a presentation, providing your unique perspective for anyone listening. While you can easily prepare your presentation based on a quick Google search, it won’t make the same lasting impact on your audience. Choose a topic you have some prior knowledge about, or have an interesting opinion you can share with others. It’ll make your presentation more engaging and memorable.

How to create a good presentation 

If you know what you want to present on, it’s time to create an impactful presentation that grabs everyone’s attention. Presentation design plays a crucial role in how your presentation is received and remembered. To stand out and leave a memorable impact on your audience, create a Prezi presentation. Instead of a linear, slide-based presentation, offer an engaging and dynamic storytelling experience to your audience. Breathe life into your presentation with motion, zoom, and spatial relationships. When creating your presentation, consider the following three essential elements: 

Visuals play a significant part in presentation design. They evoke emotions, make a memorable impact, and give more context to the story. Not to mention, 65% of people are visual learners , so visual aids are helpful when explaining a complex topic. 

In your presentation, include different types of visuals, such as images, videos, GIFs, and stickers, all of which you can find in Prezi’s content library. When selecting your visuals, consider what’s relevant and brings additional value to the story. Only add what’s meaningful and necessary. A video or image at the right place and time will enrich the viewing experience and make your presentation more memorable. 

The layout of your presentation is the structure of your story. It’ll help you introduce the topic, intrigue your audience, and unfold the layers of your topic one by one until you disclose your main arguments and summarize the presentation. A good presentation layout has a hierarchical, chronological, or logical flow that leads the viewer from start to finish. 

If you’re creating a Prezi presentation, you can create a dynamic storytelling experience by experimenting with your layout. Instead of going from slide to slide, you can zoom in and out of topics and experiment with different shapes, animations, and effects that draw the viewer into your story world. Here’s an example of a Prezi presentation with a great storytelling layout:

Data visualizations can elevate your presentation from being a good one to a great one. By providing data behind your arguments, you’ll appear more trustworthy and confident in your audience’s eyes. 

Add charts, graphs, interactive maps, and more to your presentations with Prezi Design. You can choose from a wide selection of charts and maps to illustrate your data. With interactive elements, you’ll be able to engage your audience and make a memorable impact. 

Engaging visuals, a well-structured layout, and relevant data visualizations will provide a great starting base to create a memorable presentation. Discover other tips and tricks that make your presentation effective and capture people’s attention. 

Choosing a topic for a presentation isn’t easy. When selecting a topic, think about the goal of your presentation, your interest and knowledge about the topic, and whether or not your audience will find it relevant and interesting for them. Also, get inspired by other topics that’ll help you figure out what you want to talk about. Lastly, when creating your presentation, consider the impact of visuals, layout, and data visualizations. To simplify the creation process, follow the step-by-step process of making a presentation with helpful tips and resources.

For the many people who break out in a sweat at the very idea of speaking in front of an audience , the prospect of speaking on an unknown topic with little to no preparation is likely terrifying. But you don't have to be afraid of impromptu speeches. As it turns out, the secret even to off-the-cuff speeches is preparation.

Impromptu Speech Tips

  • Decide on your topic
  • Come up with three supportive statements related to your topic
  • Prepare a strong conclusion

Use this list of impromptu speech topics to practice making a quick speech outline in your head. For each of the topics below, just think of three main points you'd like to make. For example, if your speech topic is "Your least favorite chores," you could quickly come up with three statements:

  • I don't know anybody who likes to fold laundry, so the first task on my list of unhappy chores is folding laundry.
  • Taking out the trash is another chore that most people dread, and I'm no different.
  • The worst chore in the entire household has to be cleaning the toilet.

If you go into your speech with these statements in your head, you can spend the rest of your time thinking up supporting statements as you speak. When you've identified your three main points, think of a great finishing statement. If you end with a great closer, you'll really impress your audience.

50 Activities for 6th Grade

Hands-on ideas to engage digital learners in meeting standards and learning goals.

graphic image that states 50 ideas for sixth grade

Fifty ideas for using a digital approach to help sixth-grade students meet standards and learning goals.

1. Design a how-to book or presentation

What can your students teach others? Procedural writing is an excellent way for students to become experts in a topic and feel confident about their ability to share the information with others.

To cement learning and inspire others, encourage students to closely examine the parts of a rule they struggle to understand or share the process of doing something they are passionate about. Use a flowchart to help students break down the process into each essential step.

Explore a Procedural Writing lesson plan

2. Set learning goals

The simple act of writing down your goals makes you more likely to achieve them, so have students take some time to set personal goals to accomplish this school or calendar year. Developing goals that are SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timely) can help even more.

students 3 goals and ideas for steps they can take to achieve them

Have students use the goals as a home screen on their devices so they see a daily reminder of what they are working to achieve.

Explore a SMART Goals lesson plan

3. Create and send a digital postcard

After learning something new, have students tell someone else using a postcard! Students could write a postcard from:

  • a character in a story
  • a biome or habitat

To write a blackout poem, you cover up words on a page of text until the leftover words form a poem. Using a digital approach means you don't have to pay for or destroy printed books.

Use a paint program to add a section of text from a favorite poem or book you are reading. Then, use the paint brush tool to blackout words, until a new poem appears.

blackout poem made from text in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

24. Create a mandala

Mandalas have been around for thousands of years and are highly structured forms of art that use repetitive patterns.

While mandalas are a form of radial symmetry, they have also historically been a form of meditation and a way to get to know oneself more completely. Making a mandala can help students reflect on their lives and their world.

Go on a quiet walk and let students pick up things that capture their eye, like fallen leaves, sticks, and flower petals. You can also collect found objects and recycled materials and have students use these objects to create a tangible or physical mandala.

Students can always print the message, but if they share digitally, they can record voice and/or video, making it even more personal and special.

26. Paint pop art

Share examples of Andy Warhol's work and then discuss the idea that mass-produced products from everyday life can be inspiration for art and the object of art itself. What objects do they find or use today that have their own beauty?

Many art and social media tools have filters or color options. Ask students to use clip art of common objects, like the Wixie example below, or capture a photo with their phone.

Additionally, trees play a crucial role in preventing soil erosion, conserving water, and enhancing biodiversity. They also beautify our surroundings, providing a sense of tranquility and peace.

As responsible citizens, it is our duty to protect and preserve our green friends. By planting more trees and caring for existing ones, we can contribute to a greener and healthier planet.

Today, I want to talk about something that holds great significance in our lives and has the power to make the world a better place – acts of kindness. As a class 6 student, I have come to realize the importance of small acts of kindness and how they can have a big impact.

Acts of kindness can be as simple as offering a smile, helping a friend in need, or being there for someone who feels lonely. These actions might seem small, but they create ripples of positivity that spread far and wide.

Together, we can create a world where kindness flourishes, leaving an indelible mark on every heart it touches. We can also create a chain reaction of goodness that makes our school, our community, and the world a more compassionate and caring place.

Let us make a conscious effort to be kind every day. Each act of kindness, no matter how small, counts and can make a difference. So, let’s start today and sow seeds of kindness wherever we go.

Thank you for listening. Let’s be kind and make the world a brighter place for everyone.

Speech: World Environment Day

Ladies and gentlemen, teachers, and my dear fellow students,

Today, we gather here to mark a significant occasion that calls for our attention and action – World Environment Day. As a class 6 student, I feel a deep sense of responsibility toward our planet and its well-being.

World Environment Day reminds us of the importance of preserving and protecting our environment. It’s a day when we come together as a global community to raise awareness about environmental issues and take steps to make a positive impact.

As young individuals, we have the power to bring about change. We can plant trees, conserve water, reduce waste, and adopt eco-friendly practices in our daily lives. 

Let us pledge to be guardians of our environment, caring for nature as it cares for us. By doing so, we can ensure a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future for generations to come.

Firstly, our elders have a wealth of experience and wisdom that comes from living through various situations. Their guidance can help us make better decisions and avoid pitfalls.

Secondly, obeying our elders shows respect and appreciation for their knowledge and care. It strengthens the bond between generations and fosters a sense of unity in our families and communities.

Lastly, obeying our elders teaches us discipline and helps us become responsible individuals. It prepares us to face challenges and handle responsibilities in the future.

Let us recognize the value of our elders’ advice and embrace the wisdom they offer. By doing so, we not only honor them but also empower ourselves to become better individuals.

Thank you for listening.

Speech: About Yourself

Hello everyone,

Today, I stand before you to share a little bit about myself. As a class 6 student, I believe it’s essential for us to know and understand each other better, building a strong and supportive community.

My name is [Your Name], and I am [Your Age] years old. I come from [Your City or Country], a place I hold close to my heart. I have a passion for [Your Hobbies or Interests], which brings me joy and fulfillment.

In school, my favorite subjects are [Your Favorite Subjects], and I enjoy learning new things every day. I am also an avid reader, exploring different worlds through books.

Apart from academics, I love spending time with my family and friends, creating cherished memories together.

I believe that each of us is unique and brings something special to this world. Let’s embrace our individuality and support one another on this exciting journey of growth and learning.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to introduce myself. I look forward to getting to know all of you better too.

Speech: Healthy Habits makes life Happy

Today, I want to talk about something that is the key to a happy life – healthy habits. As class 6 students, we are at an age where developing good habits can set us on a path of lifelong well-being.

Healthy habits encompass a range of practices, from eating nutritious foods and staying physically active to getting enough sleep and managing stress. When we adopt these habits, we not only feel better physically but also mentally and emotionally.

Regular exercise keeps our bodies strong and energetic, while nutritious meals fuel our minds for better learning and focus. Adequate sleep allows us to rejuvenate and be more productive during the day.

Taking care of ourselves also includes taking care of our surroundings and the environment. Let’s remember to keep our surroundings clean and minimize waste.

By cultivating healthy habits from a young age, we are laying a strong foundation for a happier and fulfilling life ahead. So, let’s pledge to prioritize our health and well-being and inspire others to do the same.

Speech: Your Favourite Sport

Ladies and gentlemen, teachers, and my dear friends,

Today, I am thrilled to talk about something that fills my heart with excitement – my favorite sport. As a class 6 student, I have discovered a passion for [Your Favorite Sport], and it has become an integral part of my life.

[Your Favorite Sport] is not just a game; it’s a thrilling experience that brings joy and adrenaline rush. Whether I am playing with my friends or watching professional players in action, it captivates me every time.

Engaging in this sport has been an enriching experience, instilling in me the vital values of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance. Furthermore, it has become the driving force behind my physical activity and mental focus, pushing me to constantly challenge and better myself.

The camaraderie and the sense of achievement I feel after a game is unparalleled. It’s a sport that challenges me to push my limits and become a better version of myself.

I encourage all of you to find and embrace a favorite sport too. It’s not just about winning; it’s about the joy of playing and the lessons we learn along the way.

Thank you for listening. Let’s celebrate the love for sports and stay active and healthy together.

Speech: Value of Friendship

Dear teachers and fellow students,

Today, I want to talk about something that is truly priceless in our lives – the value of friendship. As class 6 students, we are at an age where friendships are forming, and they play a significant role in shaping who we are.

Friendship is more than just a word; it’s a beautiful bond that brings joy, support, and understanding. True friends stand by us through thick and thin, sharing our laughter and wiping away our tears.

They inspire us to be better individuals, offering encouragement and honest advice. With friends by our side, we feel a sense of belonging and acceptance.

Friendships also teach us essential life skills, like cooperation, empathy, and compromise. As we grow together, we learn the importance of trust and loyalty.

Let us cherish and nurture our friendships, celebrating the uniqueness of each friend. Together, let’s create a caring and compassionate community, where everyone feels valued and appreciated.

Thank you for listening. Let’s embrace the beautiful gift of friendship and make our lives more meaningful and fulfilling.

Speech: The value of learning from mistakes

Today, I want to share an essential life lesson that we all encounter on our journey of learning and growth – the value of learning from mistakes. As class 6 students, it’s natural for us to make mistakes as we explore new subjects and experiences.

Mistakes are not failures; they are opportunities to learn and improve. Each mistake offers valuable insights that help us understand our weaknesses and areas for growth.

When we embrace our mistakes and take responsibility for them, we become resilient and open to new possibilities. It’s through these experiences that we develop problem-solving skills and gain the confidence to face challenges.

Let’s remember that making mistakes is a part of being human, and it’s okay to stumble as long as we rise stronger each time.

So, let’s view mistakes as stepping stones to success, learning from them, and growing into better versions of ourselves.

Speech:   The impact of technology on education

Good morning teachers and dear friends,

Today, I want to talk about a subject that has revolutionized the way we learn – the impact of technology on education. As class 6 students, we are fortunate to live in a time when technology plays a crucial role in our classrooms.

The advent of technology has revolutionized education, creating a dynamic and accessible learning environment that fosters interaction and engagement among students. With computers, tablets, and the internet, we have a vast sea of information at our fingertips. It enables us to explore diverse subjects and expand our knowledge beyond textbooks.

Digital tools and educational apps provide interactive learning experiences, making lessons fun and memorable. Virtual classrooms and online resources have made education available to students around the world, breaking down geographical barriers.

However, with this technological advancement, it’s crucial to use technology responsibly and ensure a balance between screen time and other activities.

 Together, let’s harness the power of technology to become lifelong learners and shape a bright future.

Speech: The influence of social media

Dear teachers and my dear friends,

Today, I want to discuss a topic that has a significant impact on our lives – the influence of social media. As class 6 students, many of us are exposed to social media platforms and the digital world.

social media allows us to stay connected with friends and family, discover new interests, and access a wealth of knowledge.

However, we must be mindful of the influence of social media. It’s essential to use social media responsibly and respectfully, being kind to others and protecting our privacy.

Let’s remember that while social media can be a powerful tool for learning and communication, we must strike a balance and prioritize face-to-face interactions and outdoor activities.

Thank you for listening. Let’s use social media wisely and make the most of its positive aspects.

Speech: The Power of Imagination

Today, I want to talk about something that resides within each of us and has the power to shape our world – the power of imagination. As class 6 students, we have incredible imaginations that can take us on extraordinary journeys.

Imagination allows us to dream, create, and envision possibilities beyond the confines of reality. It is the spark that ignites our creativity, helping us to solve problems in unique ways.

Through imagination, we can explore distant galaxies, dive into the depths of the ocean, or venture into mythical lands. It knows no boundaries and encourages us to think outside the box.

Let’s embrace the power of our imagination, for it is the seed of innovation and the gateway to endless opportunities. With imagination as our ally, we can shape a world full of wonder and endless possibilities.
