Each group will give a 20 minute presentation about the website project they have been working on. Remember – this is a technical presentation for non-technical people. If you need to run anything by a non-tech person, remember that I am here for you.
Practice is Tuesday, April 26 in the auditorium. CSS will go at 12:15 (sharp), and Rocket will begin at 12:45 (sharp). Have your outlines prepared by then and have done your practice of your individual parts. Be sure to use a timer when you practice.
Just as your project has been a group effort, your presentation should be as well. Each member will explain their role and contribution. Each group member MUST have a speaking part and the presentation should flow well between each speaker. Plan very clear transitions between each speaker. Such as, “Now that I have shown you how the data supports this project, I will turn it over to Mary who will discuss some concerns we had on this project.”
Your website will be your visual aid, so organize your speaking parts on who will show and speak to what part. The demonstration of the website is a very important part of this presentation, so practice with that. You may use one or two PowerPoint or Google Slides such as a title slide and one with your group name, members’ names and titles, etc.
Remember your professionalism…..dress in business casual, use great eye contact, speak up, stay professional while your other group members are speaking and direct your attention to them. Remember to explain any technical jargon that you may use. Be prepared for Q&A afterwards.
