Multimedia for Improving Competency of Business Presentations: A Brief Literature Review

Abstract

Vocational High School (SMK) graduates should find it easier to find work. This is because the skills and abilities of students are prioritized when studying at SMK. However, when viewed from the last level of education, unemployment in Indonesia is dominated by SMK graduates. This phenomenon shows that learning in SMK must be corrected immediately. This study aims to provide an overview of multimedia learning in improving the business presentation competence of vocational students. This study uses a literature study related to multimedia business presentations from several online research sources. Research reveals that multimedia that is designed according to the criteria of need can be effective in increasing the competence of business presentations. Making multimedia learning should be based on two strategic principles, namely giving control to students and giving visual cues.
