Presentation Skills: Boomerangs


A Boomerang is any approach you use to return the participants' attention back to the front of the room. So a Boomerang is used after you set up a discussion, activity, chat... and then need the group to stop, pause or return their attention to you. Often teachers and presenters use the volume of their voice to Boomerang but this can deplete energy. Boomerangs are what skilled teachers and presenters do without even knowing they might be doing it and there are a whole range of Boomerangs to play with. Enjoy the audio piece explaining the variety of Boomerangs.
