Pecha Kucha
If you haven’t heard of Pecha Kucha then sign yourself up for the challenge.
Pecha Kucha is a presentation format (usually creative) in which information can be easily and informally shown. This presentation style started back in 2003 in Tokyo, Japan, by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham. Originally, this presentation form was created for young designers to meet, network, and show off their work.
The idea behind Pecha Kucha is to present information in a concise way. Each presenter is allowed to show 20 images, with 20 seconds per slide. The goal of the presentation is to keep interest high and information flowing. Pecha Kucha has sprung interest all around the world and currently occurs in over 80 cities.
Since there are no restrictions to the type of information presented in a Pecha Kucha style presentation this formula can be used in all types of learning formats. So take take the challenge and try this new presentation style!

I think this is great. It would be perfect for a for shorter student presentations like our elearning environment. Actually, rules like this make presentations easier for me because there’s a predetermined structure. However, I do like to do a lot of explaining, so it would be a good challenge for me too. I’m considering using this format for some things I’d like to post on my blog, eportfolio, and elearning repository.
Good find, and thanks for sharing!
