I was lucky to come across a great piece of research by Martin Eppler and Roland Pfister from the University of St Gallen here in Switzerland. The paper that they have recently produced is a wonderful example of how by applying some very simple sketches and graphic representations to your normally very one dimensional factual presentations how you can really bring them to life, engage your audience more and get people thinking about what you are presenting to them using their right brain and not just the left. it worth the read so take the time to check out this paper entitled Drawing Conclusions by Eppler
