TIPS FOR PRESENTING
![Page 17: National Engineers Month 2013 Kickoff & Volunteer Training](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812a81550346895d8e11dc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Tips For Presenting• Be Prepared
– Prepare and practice your presentation
• Establish Rapport Immediately with Students– Show keen interest in who they are
– Ask opening questions and wait for answers
“Look around the classroom – what was made by an engineer?”
“What are some of your favorite things to do?”
“How many of you have ever… done – seen -- thought about -- wondered about…?”

Tips For Presenting• Check In Often With Students
– A quick check-in can be as simple as asking for a
‘thumbs up or thumbs down’ to show if they get it.
• Involve and Engage Students Continually– Don’t be a talking head
– Give every student something to do
– Break the class up into teams and make it a competition
– Have a prize for the winning team
