In this exercise, Part A must be completed, and approved by your teacher before you begin Part B.
As a senior student atAorere College, you have been asked to give a five minute talk to a group of Year 9 and 10 students at an assembly, entitled
Gaining Your Driver's Licence.
- Some information about Driving Licences can be found at the LTSA website.
- Your talk need only refer to Motorcar Licences.
- Prepare a PowerPoint presentation to accompany your talk.
Part A: Design
Use a word processor to answer the following:
- Identify the presentation topic, purpose, and target audience.
- If you were to give such a talk, what equipment and software applications would you need to create the presentation?
- What equipment and software applications would you need to deliver the presentation?
- You are to be paid for creating the presentation at a rate of $10 per hour. The budget is limited. Starting from today, give an estimate of the cost and completion date for your presentation. You will be held to the completion date.
- Print this document.
- Now, use the outlining feature of PowerPoint to plan 812 slides for your presentation. Remember that these should be brief, rather than trying to convey complex information. Summarise where possible. A good rule of thumb is no more than six words per line. The person making the presentation will give the speech, and your slideshow should complement it.
- Print your outline.
Part B: Create the presentation
Once your teacher has approved Part A, go ahead and create your presentation. The following points must be taken into consideration:
- The content of the slides must meet the design specification.
- The presentation of content should ensure effective communication:
- colour combinations
- text style
- graphic layout
- special effects (e.g. animation and/or builds)
- The organisation of the slides should also ensure effective communication:
- quantity of slides (not too many, not too few)
- order of presentation
- position and direction indicators
Slide transition effects must be used to maintain audience attention.
