Question

Your colleague Carly recently gave her first presentation to your department. Before starting her slide show, she took a few minutes to remind the audience of their shared work goals. Carly used a keyboard to advance her slides, and she was careful not to block the projection. For each slide, she explained how the information on screen related to her larger takeaway messages. She became flustered when two slides were out of order, but she recovered quickly. Afterward, Carly asked you how she might improve. Which guideline will you remind her of? Multiple Choice Do not start your slides right away. Interpret, do not read your slides. Speak to your audience, not the screen. Avoid standing in front of the slide projection. Use a remote control to advance slides when possible.

Answer 1

e. Use a remote control to advance slides when possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

While Carly had a great presentation, she almost flustered because two slides were out of order. This has a potential to take the presenter off balance because she has to go to the keyboard to keep pressing. Although this error may have been made during the time of creating the presentation, the best improvement to Carly based on the options available is to use a remote control to advance slides when possible. If Carly had a remote, she would just have used it to order the slides and really not make a fuss out of the situation.
