Presentation Ideas


Recommended Posts

Just be honest with them. Say you had no ideas what to talk about so you went on to Pie and Bovril and asked for ideas. As expected, you got some excellent responses, such as Shakespeare, Quantum Physics, Landscape gardening in Peru, the effects of climate change on the iguana population of Papua New Guinea, geophysics, carbon dating of the ancient Caledonian Forest, America's on-going ban of haggis, malt whisky, an island in the Atlantic called Tristan de Cunha, scrabbled eggs, the ozone layer, washing powder, shinty and aardvarks. That should keep it going for five minutes.

Good Luck.

 

In all seriousness, that's a great idea. Most remote inhabited island in the world. Only 270 people who are all somewhat in-bred. And they all live in a village with the wonderful name of "Edinburgh of the Seven Seas".

It is also known as Asthma Island - since most of the population have asthma. They all derive from 7 families of which 4 had asthma. Try "Asthma Island" on YouTube to see more.

should probably have mentioned, no laptops or projectors, good old fashioned flipchart and coloured pens

In that case, what about a presentation on the history of PowerPoint and how it works. That will teach them about irony.

"The benefits of having a Royal Family." If you can come up with 5 minutes worth of material on that, you deserve to be hired.

 

ETA: By this I mean "Benefits of having a Royal Family to people other than the Royal Family themselves."
