Processing Information **1. Features of My Presentation Format** Although we have worked on your choice of presentation format in class before, you will need to review it's common features in order to use it effectively.  Click here to do so. **2. Presentation Plan** Now that you have investigated the features of your chosen presentation format, it is time to incorporate them into your presentation ideas. Before you start producing your product, you must create a plan of what your product will look like. Do this on one blank A4 piece of paper. Include information about: - The layout or timeline - Who will make or talk about what - How you plan to produce this, using the materials and equipment you have Spend about 5 minutes creating your plan. When you have finished, show this to your teacher to check you are on the right track. Once this is completed, you can move on to creating your presentation. **3. Creating Your Presentation** When creating your product, include enough information over a variety of topics so that the Heidelberg Elementary students can really get to know your state or territory. Divide your information up so that what you are talking about is clear. Ensure you use the common features of you present style so that it is convincing. If you are making a product that will take a while to view, such as a podcast or video advertisement, ensure it does not go for any longer than around four minutes, so that you have time to talk about it afterwards. Spend about 20 minutes putting everything together.

**4. Presenting Your Product** Once your presentation is created, you must work out how you will present this to the class. Your presentation must go for a total of 5 minutes. This means that if you have produced something that takes time to view, such as a video advertisement or podcast, you will present it and spend the remaining minute or so talking about it. If you have created something that will not take time to show, such as a poster or brochure, you must spend the whole five minutes explaining what you have written. After showing or explaining your product, you can talk about: What features of your presentation style you used and why Why you chose to include the information you have presented Your personal opinions on your allocated state or territory.
