It is used to make clear what has just happened, and what is going to happen next. So in other words, it acts as a guide so the listener can follow what you are saying.

Also, the lecture may be split into two parts (see for example the section 4 of this lecture).

The signposting language we'll look at in this lesson is the words and phrases that introduce the topics and subsections of the lecture.

Remember there are lots of different ways to say these things, so what you hear could be phrased slightly differently.
