Scheduling Guidelines

 

The parent presentation is 60 minutes and is usually scheduled for 7 PM - 8 PM.

 

The student presentation is 60 minutes, with 45 minutes of storytelling plus 15 minutes of key takeaways.

 

Additional time allocation should be planned for the seating and exit of the students.

Technology Requirements

 

I will use my laptop and have all the necessary interface cables to connect to your projection and audio system.

 

I will need you to provide a screen, projector, and audio system, including a microphone and the ability to connect to my laptop for sound.  I will have many audio adapters and connectors, including a direct interface box, with me if needed to make the laptop audio connection work.  I do not require internet access.

 

I will have my presentation available on a thumb drive, too if the school system only allows the use of their computer as part of the AV system.  The format will be Keynote and PowerPoint.  However, please make sure your software is up to date.

​

Language Translation 

​​

I also offer my presentations with subtitles translating to any language requested. However, I will need internet access for this option to work.
