Senior Presentation Guidelines*

The purpose of the Senior Presentation is to tell the story of the Senior Project by synthesizing what was learned from the product creation with the information from the paper. It is your chance to describe what you learned to a group of interested adults and peers.

Guidelines:

·               The student should explain the process of creating the product and writing the paper. There should be an introduction, body and conclusion.

·               The presentation must include visual or auditory aids such as PowerPoint or Keynote.

·               The presentation must be 7 to 10 minutes in length including a question and answer period.

·               The presentation should be rehearsed in front of an audience at least three times. You may use note cards or PowerPoint presentation as prompts.

·               This is a formal presentation. Students should dress in business attire.
