Requirements
The oral presentation includes at least 10 slides.
The slides for your oral presentation should have only 3-5 lines of text with 5-7 words per line. The fonts should be easy to read and backgrounds need to be easy on the eye. Avoid using colors that are too bright and backgrounds that make it difficult to read the text. Pictures and graphs are encouraged to support the information on your slides, but not required.
Each slide should have a minimum 2-3 sentences of speaker notes in the “Notes” area at the bottom of each the slide. The speaker notes should be written as your script for the oral presentation. They should have a viewpoint and purpose that is clearly established and sustained throughout the oral presentation, and follow the conventions of Standard English, including correct grammar, punctuation and mechanics.
The speaker notes will need to be recorded as voice audio files and added to each slide as if you are presenting to an audience. Be sure to use clear enunciation, professional tone, and record in a quite space with no background noise (no T.V., music, barking dogs, children or adult conversation, etc.).
Use exceptional oral delivery techniques in your voice recordings, including proper word choice and oral expressiveness, and superior content, organization and style to lead your audience toward a dynamic and supported conclusion.
