General Expectations:
- Standard formatting
- Use this template.
- Great visuals, less text
- What does the text say that you cannot? Try to remove the text and provide an image that you will explain in words when you present. Short notes can be useful to the audience as well.
- If you have text with numbers, can you make it into a table? If not, can you include an image with the text to help explain? Can you include a picture and say the words without writing them? If your text is too small, move some to the next slide and include the image again.
- If you have a table, what point do you want the table to make? Does it do that? Would another visual be better (i.e. a graph)?
- If you have a graph, the audience should be able to look at it without explanation and understand where we should be focused (but not necessarily the interpretation or conclusions from it). It should have readable axis labels, a title, appropriate units, and grid lines if needed.
- 5 minutes per person presenting plus 5 minutes for an introduction
- This is a maximum, but each team member should speak for approximately the same amount of time
- Keep in mind, there are 11-15 people each class (55-75 minutes of a 75 minute class), so you may be allowed to go a little long, but eventually you will be cut off
- 18 pt font
- This is a minimum; bigger is better.
- Spell check is your friend, and also your enemy
- Sometimes, it will not catch errors if your mistyped word is also a word
- Keep your audience in mind
- Not everyone has had fluid mechanics, however assume you are speaking to an engineering audience
- Equations
- They may be intimidating and even unnecessary. Can you get away with naming the equation and explaining what it calculates? Or do we need to see the variables behind it?
- Practice at least once
