Outstanding -- ease of use *****, February 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Flip Charts: How to Draw Them and How to Use Them (Paperback)
This is the one book that I would recommend for any trainer. Mr. Brandt tells you how to create flipcharts, including use of color, graphics, lettering, and the use of space. It is easy to read and follow. Also included are several diagrams for easy to draw graphics and lettering.
This is one book I would recommend for every trainrs toolbox!

A Book to Flip Over, February 28, 2007
This review is from: Flip Charts: How to Draw Them and How to Use Them (Paperback)
In a world run-amuck with powerpoint presentations, this book is another reminder that sometimes the best training aids are the most simple, not electrical, and therefore more reliable.
Brandt gives you the strategy for using flips, how to design them, and how to integrate them in your presentation. He even tells you how they should be stored and carried.
I have found his information so helpful, it is now a part of our train-the-trainer program.
After all, what are you going to do if the electricity or the outlet blows?
Highly recommended.

Practical, useful--an indispensable reference, March 29, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Flip Charts: How to Draw Them and How to Use Them (Paperback)
This is a "How-To" book. The tools and techniques Brandt shares here are those that separate the pros from the rest of the pack when it comes to flip chart work.
85 pages are jam-packed with templates, experiences, hints--I did not find a wasted word anywhere in this book. Some of the tidbits you will find:
* Reasons the flipchart is an appropriate, or inappropriate, AV choice for your presentation
* Both the function and form of flip charts, and how to be sure they complement each other
* The Flip Chart Presenter's Survival Kit (this alone was worth the price of the book for me, and has saved my presentation several times)
* Techniques on design, printing, "hiding and revealing" content. . .
* Effective methods of production, storage, and transportation
* Dozens of illustrations, pictures--even instructions for making your own flip chart stand.
This is one of my most prized reference tools. Rarely do I create a new presentation without referring to it at least once.
