The format of the slides is up to you, but should indicate to your audience the structure of your presentation. You may add transitions and other effects to your slides, but too many bells and whistles can be distracting. A total of 4 - 6 slides is a reasonable number of slides for a brief presentation. Part II-- You will prepare a 2 paged speaking outline. This is an outline of the presentation, including the introduction, body, and conclusion.

The speaking outline should be written in an outline format, and should be 2 pages long. *You can single-space the speaking outline* In the introduction: You must capture the attention of your audience in the introduction. Be sure to find a way to relate the topic to your audience. You must introduce your topic in the introduction. Be sure that the audience knows exactly what you will be talking about. You should preview your main points in the introduction. This helps the audience follow your presentation. In the body: You must use a clear organization in the body of the presentation. You must use good transitions. You must adapt the information to the level of your anticipated audience. Avoid having too many, or too few, main points. Generally, three main points is about right. In the conclusion: Provide some sort of transition to the conclusion: Let your audience know that you're done presenting the bulk of the information and that the presentation is coming to an end. Provide some sense of completion: You might summarize your main points, refer back to your introduction, or suggest something new for the audience to think about. Whatever you do, try to think in terms of having your audience think about and remember your main issues. You must end the presentation clearly: Find some way to tell your audience that the body is concluded.
