Chapter 4 Ringing CHIMES

In chapter four reading Burmark mentions teachers at this point do not have the time to cover all the aspects of teaching in today’s society in schools we tend to rush lessons without covering everything that must be taught “in which admits that no teacher has the time to cover all the standards so he just expounds on a few of them-the really important ones” (pg. 61). Burmark mentions time during a presentation the first minute of a presentation it is very critical you can lose the audience attention what must be done is to make the more efficiency and more effectiveness “Moreover, in the context of educational presentation, we need things not only to be done, but also well done. We need efficiency (how fast you can teach it) to be effectiveness (how well they will learn it)” (pg 62). Burmark mentions besides making a presentation effective the second phase is getting their attention and keeping their attention while presenting at any lecture of “(getting their attention), how do you accomplish the second part (keeping their attention) long enough to make your presentation stick?” (pg.64). Burmark mentions the hook and loop concept an idea that Burmark uses to get the audience attention an idea from the term Velcro “That’s where the Velcro comes in.” (pg.64). Burmark also mentions six concepts to use during the presentation that would get the audience attention and will keep the audience in focus “if we can learn to play even seven in a our live performs, our audience members will synch up to the rhythm like toes tapping and hands clapping at a country-western concert in Nashville.” (pg.66).
