Basics
You are to give an 8-10 minute speech covering your paper, project and what you learned.
What should be in my speech?

See page 50 of SPM
What if?
I haven’t passed my paper or project yet? You will be required to attend Summer School and you will not participate in graduation.
Visual Contents
You must have an integrated visual in your speech!
You may use PowerPoints, poster board, artifacts from your project, video or other visual items.
PowerPoints
– Cover points of your speech, don’t write out your speech.
– Do not read your slides, make bullets and expand on them.
– Spell check and edit.– Incorporate pictures that you can detail throughout
your project discussion. – Burn it onto a disk, email it to yourself, have it in
your storage…have the slides accessible in several forms.
Poster Boards
– Cover points of your speech.– Make sure items on the board are legible.– Spell check and edit.– Suggest including a section for the:
• Paper (small panel)• Project (middle panel, with visuals)• Learning/Etc. (small panel)
Artifacts
– Set them up prior to your speech, preferably off to the side of you.
– Don’t stare at or talk to them during your speech.
– Incorporate them during your speech when discussing your project.
Video
– No more than a minute.– Set up the clip, explain what is going on in
the video prior to the taping – If the volume is not usable, explain the clip
as it is played--dead silence during video is awkward.
