Lesson 2: PREPARING PECHA KUCHA PRESENTATION


Pecha Kucha, chit-chat in Japanese, is a unique presentation style. These presentations are known
for telling stories through images rather than text and are typically brief. They use the 20x20 rule,
where each presentation consists of 20 slides. and each slide is displayed for only 20 seconds,
automatically progressing to the next one. This results in a total presentation time of 6 minutes and
40 seconds.

Origins of Pecha Kucha

Pecha Kucha presentations were created in Tokyo in 2003 by architects Astrid Klein and
Mark Dytham. They introduced it as a platform for young designers to come together, showcase
their work, and exchange ideas through brief presentations. The core principle behind Pecha Kucha
was to "talk less, show more," Since then, its popularity has gone beyond the design field,
becoming a worldwide phenomenon These presentations are now used in many different settings
ranging from academic conferences to business meetings and even informal gatherings.
There is a whole community dedicated to Pecha Kucha, who get together and organize "Pecha
Kucha Nights."

networking among students, professionals, businessmen, public officials, etc. In other words,
blogging has become an indispensable medium of communication. In the same manner, blogging
can be used effectively for academic purposes. According to Richardson (2006), the use of blogs
has been an engaging and effective way to promote writing skills of primary students, particularly
when student peers provide feedback to the blog.
