[Help] I have to give a talk for an hour and a half! Updates to this post /post/159434-i-have-to-give-a-talk-for-an-hour-a Wed, 15 Oct 2008 21:07:10 +0100 Reply from SoulRising /post/159434-i-have-to-give-a-talk-for-an-hour-a#reply-3722363 arc = as in American Red Cross

I fill some of the time with film, slides, objects to be handled, questions…

How old is your audience and what level of knowledge can you assume they already have?

Well, I am ok with the theory behind it all, just the idea of talking so long scares me! Also I am supposed to involve the audience, with “educational games” which is what I am a bit stuck on really. I think I’d just prefer to talk at them for the whole time!

I am thinking about some kind of debate or something.

So, I suppose you want more ideas, but you give me a while. OK, do you have a film, slides, endangered species list (ie polar bears…)? Pictures, plans, suggestions, theories…

I like to squeeze a lemon in my water, it helps to keep my throat lubricated.
Will you be giving a presentation on a screen? Do you have something to pass around? What is the topic? How long do you have to prepare?
