    10. As my mentor, how could you guide me in my professional development?
    11. What advice can you give me on setting a professional path towards developing into a practice role like yours?

 

Create a slide presentation using Office 365 PowerPoint. Use the Slide Presentation Outline (see below) as a guide.

  • The slide design theme should be professional.
  • Each slide should present one main idea.
  • Slide content should be organized into bullet points (no paragraphs or long sentences).
  • The use of graphics or pictures on a slide should enhance the slide’s main idea.
  • Slide content should be organized and flow in a logical format.
  • A reference slide, in APA style, is only required if you cite sources in your presentation.

Record audio on each slide to expand on the slide content.

    • Each slide should contain a recorded audio clip of your voice, including the title slide.
    • Audio clips for each slide should be less than 3 minutes.
    • Audio clips should enhance the slide content. You should not read the slide bullets or the slide content word-for-word.
    • Audio clips should be clear and professionally presented with minimum pause words (uh, um), background noises, or distractions.
    • If a reference slide is used, do not record audio on this slide.
    • Review your presentation for spelling, grammar and APA style (if applicable).
