At the appropriate time, turn on the video, and share the screen.

Please stop when signaled by the Chair to do so.

Organization of your talk

Describe the methods of investigation.
-
Presentation tips
-
Prepare notes that highlight the salient points of the talk.
-
Practice the talk delivery several times prior to the presentation, along with the slide sequence, to be sure it fits into the allocated time.
-
Use simple sentences. Avoid jargon, highly specialized vocabulary, and unfamiliar abbreviations.
-
Think about questions that might be asked about the work and be prepared with well thought out answers, being mindful of the limited discussion time.
-
Audiovisuals should be chosen to enhance the talk.
-
Choose the medium that will optimally display the information - don't use words if a graphic (graphs, tables, charts, etc.) will convey it more clearly.
-
Use line graphs to show trends; bar graphs to compare magnitudes, and pie charts to demonstrate relative portions of a whole.
-
Make sure audiovisuals are concise, uncluttered, and easy to read.
-
Include data collected and what was learned.
-
Give conclusions based on the collected data.
-
Emphasize the significance and highlights of the research.
