Develop a creative opening, prepare a strong message for the presentation body, and finish with an effective closing. Consider three questions that you think your audience may ask about your topic, and be sure to answer these questions as part of the body. Use at least one visual aid to support the information in your presentation. Rehearse the presentation several times before recording it. You can record it with your cell phone, a web cam, or anything else that will allow you to upload it to the Discussion Board. After youhave submitted your presentation to the Discussion Board, watch the presentations of at least three classmates and critique them. Be sure to include positive reviews and some gentle suggestions where you think they are needed. Remember to use "netiquette" when you are replying to your classmates' presentations. Be sure that you are using correct punctuation, grammar, and spelling when you are composing your responses to your classmates posts. Being an accomplished student who is about to enter the workforce, you should be aware of how to format a paragraph correctly and communicate effectively. Proofread, proofread, proofread!
