Re: Presentation Tips?
Hi
Here are a few things that might help, depending on how much room you have and, as astronouth mentions, who your audience is. Get there early! Give yourselves time to set up (1/2hr to 45min....it'll go fast), swallow your butterflies, and feel a bit more comfortable in the presentation room, parking lot, foyer...whatever Bring your 'bot (or slide or pic that's easy for everyone to see) if possible, even if it is a static display. Touchy-feely really works! Place it up front where everyone can see you and the 'bot while you are talking. Start the promotional video as people are arriving...it gives everyone something to watch as they are finding a seat and sizing you up...it can run cotinuously 3 or 4 times if it is not too long......you know best! Elect one of you to introduce your team and give a short description of the "mission of FIRST" - 2-3min max Follow that up with personal testimonies from each team member...nothing fancy...just straight from the gut: Who you are Which high school # of years on the team (got any rookies to bring?) duties on the team What it has meant to you, personally ...that sort of stuff ...30sec to 2 min....speak slowly...it will still come across as fast to your audience Gather the audience around the 'bot and each of you take a turn at describing it: chassis/drivetrain efectors electronics programming handling qualities what worked, what didn't... ...and how each part was used in playing the game. Field questions.... Be sure to say "thank you!" ...good luck, You can do this, and have fun doing it, too...it's all a part of being a team. Eric |
