Tips From TAs:
- Follow the
Critique Sheets!
- Don't Apologize if
you make a mistake - just keep going!
- Objectives much
say how the audience will be changed: "I'm going to talk
to you about rock climbing" is NOT an objective.
"After my presentation you will know the basics of
rock climbing" is an objective.
- Restate must knows
must be SPECIFIC (not "I've gone over apples to use, oven
temperature, and how to serve." Instead it should be
"Remember use only Granny Smith Apples, Bake at 350
degrees F, and serve with a slice of Sharp Ceddar Cheese").
- Have a STRONG
ENDING separate from the restate must knows.
- PAUSE FOR EFFECT!
- DRESS -
conservative & more formal than usual.
- It is YOUR
responsibility to set up the technology - not the TAs.
Set up BEFORE lab starts.
- Lab Roles
- Everyone is
expected to arrive early and stay the whole time - go to
the bathroom before lab.
- Source any facts
that are not common knowledge.
- Repeat questions
asked at the end of your presentation.
