Presentation OutlineIn-Class PresentationEach student must complete (and pass) a presentation to his/her English class. Students who do not pass the in-class presentation must do it again until the presentation is passed. The in-class presentation is designed to be a dress rehearsal for the panel presentation. This means you come fully dressed up, with your visual aids, and with your note cards. An LCD projector, and document camera are available in each panel room. Make sure you know how to use the equipment. Panel PresentationPanel Presentation Rubric (same as in-class) Presentations are at Shorecrest in classrooms across campus. It is given to a panel of 3 – 5 interested adults. These people could be teachers, parents, community members, and district personnel. All assignments up to this point must be received & approved in order to move on to the panel presentation. Arrive at least 10 minutes early! Both in-class and panel presentation length = 8 – 12 minutes. Allow up to 10 minutes after this for panel member questions. All equipment will be in the room for you when you arrive. Once you are finished answering questions you may go home. You can find out from your English teacher the next school day or later if you passed. If you do not pass the first time you will have an opportunity to do it until you do pass. Dress RequirementsYou are expected to dress professionally for this presentation. Wear something that you would wear to a job interview. Males:Slacks, button up shirt (no Polo shirts), tie optional, dress shoes. Tuck in your shirt! Comb your hair! Females:Skirt or slacks, button up shirt, nylons if wearing a skirt, dress shoes. No sandals or open toed shoes (sorry!). NO: Shorts, halter-tops, see through clothes, jeans, and baseball caps. Do the tummy test: Make sure that you can raise your arms above your head and your shirt does NOT show your tummy. Panel members are very critical about dress. Dressing nice is an easy way to get points. General rule of thumb:If you would wear it to school it probably isn’t dressy enough! Note: If you did a car project or created something that is too big to be brought into the building, have it in the parking lot and take your panel members out to view it. This could be at the end of the presentation or in the middle, wherever you feel it fits best.

Then, talk specifically about some things that you learned about lighting then show a picture that displays that particular technique, and so on.
