IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT YOUR PRESENTATION

When developing your TEAM PRESENTATION remember these important things so you don't lose points.

  • Your presentation can only last 7 minutes. Make sure you practice your presentation and know how long it will take. During the judging a timer will be present and they will cut you off at 7 minutes. if you go over the time limit you will lose points.
  • You may not use electronic devices in your presentation. Only you and your team mates plus two presentation boards.
  • Teamwork is essential. All members of your team should contribute to the presentation and be able to answer questions.
  • Your model is an important visual aid in your presentation
  • You may use flip boards or foamcore boards in your presentation. If you use a single board it cannot exceed 60” (W) x 36” (H). If you use two boards they cannot exceed 30” (W) x 36” (H) each.
  • You may handout a single sheet of paper with important information about your Future City

When making your TEAM PRESENTATION remember to present your Future City from the perspective of different people who would live there, like the mayor, a city engineer, or a citizen.
