Presenters (TECHS students)
1. Tell the kids to talk slowly (they'll have a tendency to try to talk as fast as they are thinking).2. Pause where appropriate (to give the audience time to absorb the message).
3. Watch instructor for cues (see #1 below).
4. Ask audience if they have any questions or comments at the end.
Teachers
1. Have hand signals to tell kids to slow down, pause, speed up, or you're doing A-OK (do the last one frequently).2. Feel like you can interrupt them if/when needed to clarify or give your side of things.
You should all feel good about this event. Take a moment to high-five yourselves and each other!! (I just had a visual of high-fiving oneself. Would that be like clapping? Guess so. Applause is what it's all about!)
