Presentation Info

Presentation Overview

Your final presentation is a chance for you to share your learning journey and final product with your classmates. While we like to present our work in an informal setting, there are still some guidelines that we follow to ensure that we're making the most of our time in class.

Just like the rest of our STEAM class, we want your presentation to reflect your own interests and creative style. What does that mean? While sticking to the basics is perfectly acceptable, the presentations have that little extra effort will be the ones that make your projects stand out.

What Information Should I Include?

While we want you to be creative with your presentation, there still are some guidelines we want to stick to. Don't worry though. These guidelines won't limit you from being your creative self!

1. Please limit your presentation to no more than three to four minutes.
2. Both partners should take an active role in the presentation.
3. Practice and proofread your work! There is nothing worse than a great presentation filled with misspelled words.
4. Remember that we value quality over quantity. When sharing topics such as your challenges and successes, it's better to focus on just two or three instead of listing ten different things. It is also very helpful to include a picture for each topic you cover.
5. Your presentation should cover the following topics (and more if you choose):
   • Title Page
   • Your SMART Goal
   • How your project connects to a career in the outside world
   • Some challenges you faced (2 or 3) with how you overcame them
   • A few specific things you're proud of (2 or 3)
   • Your Final Product (See below for more information)
