Energy Presentation Review

Mid-November we were given the assignment to research the outcome to making one small environmental change in our homes. We were told to start small, and see how big an impact it would make in our energy use and our wallets over a years time.
I decided to see what might happen if I limited my dryer use and air dried more laundry. To see my power point presentation click here. Next, I was filmed presenting the power point to the class, after I watched my presentation I came up with 3 main things to improve upon with my presenting.
  1. First and foremost, do not just read your slides verbatim! I need to provide verbal examples and just highlight the main idea on the slide.
  2. Face the audience, and don't face the slide screen. Although I get nervous, I need to be more conscience of body language.
  3. Last, I need to remember to pause between slides a little longer, and invite questions throughout the presentation.
