Transcript How do I do my presentation

How do I do my
presentation?
1.
Your first slide will list
the title of your section
and your name
2. Choose a nice
background that is
appropriate for your
presentation
Now log in to the program
 Follow
directions from your handout
to open
http://www.domesatreview.com/freesat-critical-reading-study-guides
 NOTE: If you get an error message,
click on “OK to go to this page” or
something like that.
Find your section
 Read
it
 You will build slides from the
information in your section
 Use enough slides to present CLEAR
information with examples
 ** To add more information to your
slides, Google the topic to get info
from other sources. Build your Works
Cited page as you go!
Problems to avoid
 Use
your own words! It is obvious
if you copy/paste everything because
you lose your voice, and we probably
won’t understand what you are trying
to say
 Use a new slide rather than
cramming everything in on one slide
 Keep the text readable
 Use examples!
Feel free to add more information
 Google
your topic or specifics from
your selection in order to find and
present more information
 Remember that every item you use
from a source must be noted on the
Works Cited page.
These students must add
examples/practice exercises
 Alex,
Eric, Ryan, Mary, Monica,
Madison, Tori, Josh, Heather,
Thomas
 You have a grammar section, so we
need to review the rules through
some practice exercises.
 Google to find these exercises, and
plan to lead us through the practice
Works Cited
 Present
Works Cited as a separate
page (12 point Times, doublespaced,
following directions and format from
the handout)
 The sample WC page shows web
sources as a guide for your
formatting
 Do not put this information into your
Powerpoint presentation. It is a
separate print out!
How to cite Google images
-- It’s so easy!
 “Flowers.”
The Flower Expert. Web.
12 Jan. 2012.
 “word you searched.” Web site
name. Web. Date of access.
 Everything goes in ABC order.
SAMPLE WC Page

put it into Word.)

What music will you use?
 You
may use your Ipod during your
presentation
 Avoid music that interferes with your
presentation -- and that will annoy
the teacher ; )
 Your music does not have to have
words
 Research shows that particular types
of music are better for stimulating
thinking. See the direction sheet for
more info!
Fancy it up!
 Feel
free to add transitions
 Use art to help present your
material.
 Keep in mind that “Google” is a
website which you will need to cite
as you gather pictures
Here is a sample entry for an image from Google images:
“Flowers.” The Flower Expert. Web. 12 Jan. 2012.
(This image is linked from Google images, listing the word you
used to search and the homepage of the image.)
Images


If you can’t access Google images, try Yahoo images
Also, you can use images from Cobb Virtual:
On the HHS homepage, under Academics  Media
Center  Cobb Virtual on the right. Once you open
Cobb Virtual, on the left side  Multimedia.
Here you may find resources for images. All work well,
and you need to cite each image that you choose.
(The Microsoft Office Clip Art also has photos, not just
clip art.)
www.memory.loc.gov provides images from the
Library of Congress
www.morguefile.com provides good photographic
images

 Save
regularly!
 This is not homework since you will
have plenty of time to complete it in
class.
 However, if you choose to work on it
at home, make sure that you have
saved it here in the lab as the
appropriate file type. (Our lab has a
newer version of Powerpoint.)
Have fun!
 With
these presentations, you will hear
the strategies to which your former
classmates referred.
 This
is VERY IMPORTANT information
that you will share with the class!
 When
you are done, print out your
Works Cited page.
When you are finished
 Complete
your stupid clues (10)
 Write higher level sentences for these 10
words (no linking verb)
 Use the same sheet of paper
 Turn this in when it is complete
 (If you choose to work with a partner,
you may. Both of you will write the
sentences on your paper. Put BOTH
names on the paper near your sentences
so I know who worked together.)
