Use of Pecha Kucha in Marketing Students' Presentations
Levin, Michael A.; Peterson, Lori T.
Marketing Education Review, v23 n1 p59-63 Spr 2013
This paper discusses the use of a presentation format known as "Pecha Kucha" (which means "chitchat" in Japanese). The objective of the Pecha Kucha assignment is to facilitate student communication of an argument,
including stating and supporting a thesis. Throughout the semester, students become comfortable with the format via multiple individual presentations and a final group presentation, leading to a deeper understanding of course content. While the Pecha Kucha assignment discussed was a course component
for three terms of an MBA marketing course, the assignment can be tailored for undergraduate courses. (Contains 1 table.)
