When i took speech last semester, I did my persuasive speech on 'Batman: Greatest Superhero of All Time' \n\nCould insert a different superhero if you don't like Batman- but my speech teacher LOVED this topic. \n\nI have a friend who (this semester) did hers, trying to convince ppl that Star Wars is a religion. I know, its nerdy, but people liked it because it was a nice change of pace.

Come up with a general thesis, like "Evil exists because of humans" or something like that. Then find your sources. Write a long paragraph based on the information from each source that pertains to that thesis. Then, put the paragraphs from each source in some sort of order, based on how they flow the best. Then, in between each paragraph, fill in with more paragraphs that combine ideas with one another, so that they flow. If you used, say, 6 sources, you should have about 6 pages by now. Then, read through and fill in points and embellish the ideas that are already there. Voila... 12 pages. Make sure you take snack and rest breaks every 2 hours or so. Good luck!

Reading books (some have little chips now)\nGreeting cards (some have little chips now)\nPin-hole camera (cameras with chips)\nClocks/watches\nWeight scales (digital)\n\nYou can surf the internet to get images which can be included in your slides.\n\nTo have a great presentation you need to address the following:\n\n1) Do not have too much information on a slide. You want a person to look at a slide and get a general idea so that when you expand on the idea using speech they are not distracted by reading lots of information from the slide at the same time.\n\n2) Make it interesting and keep it simple (one idea, one slide) - One-liner jokes are good but you have to be careful you dont offend anyone. Also, too many will kill it as you are not there in the capacity of a comedian.  \n\n3) Practice looking at everyone as you go through your presentation. Make them feel you are speaking to each one personally.\n\n4) Practice a few times in front of family or friends and ask for feedback. This will help you with your timing. You will not rush as you will be comfortable since you practiced.\n\nGood luck with your project.

Here is a cute idea I am not sure if you're interested:\n\nPart of your presentation start with "le tour de France" Which introduces the history, foods, about the people etc\n\nAnd then make up a little brochure type deal discussing the geography food could also go here, sites and other maybe interesting history also maybe throw in a few interesting words you like or sentences\n\nfinish up with the language and population etc

Sure... but it's not really much of a presentation.. as in, most presentations are expected to be rehearsed and planned out... yours would be a dialoug and improvised... so ask your teacher first.

You've got a ton of stuff happening during the first half of the century.  Everything involving both world wars, the first flight, the Bolshevik Revolution, the San Fransisco Earthquake, the stock market crash, the depression on both sides of the Atlantic, lots of stuff.\n\nWhat are you interested in?  It helps a lot if the subject is interesting to you.  Do you want something military, cultural, political, technological, scientific?

I agree with the poster above, try to come up with an interesting fact about TJ, then weave that into your intro while at the same time introducing what's to come.  Try to pick a fact that you could use at the end to close and summarize in the same way.

Dear corky,\n\nhave you read the book yet?  What sort of presentation are you expected to do?\n\nYou could always look at critiquing the work.  The premise of the story is how human (in this case children) would behave when they are faced with various circumstances and pressure of nature and need for survival.\n\nYou could also analyse how the kids "organize" themselves - the formation of "society" on the island.\n\nYou could analyze how the kids built their own "religion" or belief system.\n\nYou could analyze how the author portray human nature.  Would these pointers be enough?
