This document provides guidance on presentation tips for virtual collaboration projects. It outlines a five step presentation process: planning, preparing, scripting, presenting, and debriefing. It also discusses how presentation tools can vary in terms of being physical or digital, their functions in consuming, creating and sharing content, and how audience interaction works.
