16. LICHTMAN’S PRESENTINGGUIDELINES Storytelling approach Visual aids Participants exemplars Theme-based presentations Critical reflections Audience engagement Time management

17. Definition Purpose How to apply Example This method uses a narrative structure to share findings, weaving data into a coherent story that engages the audience. It provides context, depth, and meaning to the research findings, making them relatable and memorable. Start with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Use real-life anecdotes or participant experiences to illustrate key points. Maintain authenticity while highlighting the research's overarching themes. Narrating a participant’s journey through their lived experiences to reflect broader themes of the study. Storytelling approach

18. Definition Purpose How to apply Example These are tools such as charts, graphs, photographs, diagrams, or videos that visually represent data. To clarify complex ideas, enhance understanding, and sustain audience interest. Choose visuals that align directly with your findings. Use infographics to simplify data-heavy information. Ensure visuals are clear, concise, and accessible. Using a word cloud to show the frequency of key terms or themes from interview transcripts. Visual aids

19. Definition Purpose How to apply Example These are direct quotes or narratives from participants that illustrate and support the findings. To give voice to participants and ground findings in real experiences. Select exemplars that best represent the themes and patterns. Contextualize the quotes to avoid misinterpretation. Preserve the authenticity and integrity of participants' words. Including verbatim excerpts from interviews to highlight emotional responses or perceptions. Participant’s exemplar

20. Definition Purpose How to apply Example Organizing findings around major themes or categories identified during the analysis. To structure the presentation in a way that highlights key insights and connections. Present each theme with supporting evidence from the data. Show how the themes interconnect or evolve. Use subthemes or categories for complex findings . Presenting findings under themes like "challenges," "coping mechanisms," and "support systems" in a study on mental health. Theme-based presentations

21. Definition Purpose How to apply Example A thoughtful examination of the research process, findings, and their implications. To demonstrate the researcher’s reflexivity and awareness of the study's broader context. Discuss limitations and ethical consideration Reflect on how the researcher's perspective influenced the study. Explore the implications of findings for theory, practice, or policy. Acknowledging that personal biases may have shaped data interpretation and offering strategies to mitigate this. Critical reflections

22. Definition Purpose How to apply Example Actively involving the audience in the presentation to foster understanding and interest. To make the findings more interactive and relatable. Use open-ended questions to prompt discussion. Incorporate activities like polls or group reflections. Tailor the presentation to the audience’s background and interests. Asking the audience how they relate to the themes presented and encouraging dialogue about shared experiences. Audience engagement

23. Definition Purpose How to apply Example Effectively allocating time to ensure all aspects of the presentation are covered without rushing. To respect the audience's time while thoroughly communicating findings. Create a detailed outline with time allocations for each section. Practice the presentation to stay within the allotted time. Allow time for questions and discussions. Allocating 10 minutes for background, 20 minutes for findings, 10 minutes for reflections, and 10 minutes for Q&A in a one-hour session. Time management
