    TECHNICAL DETAILS 
    You will be using Google Slides to put your presentation together and Screencastify to deliver it to 
    your peers and teacher. Here’s a walkthrough of the process: 

    1. Do your research! (See the Recommended sources at the end of this document) 
    2. Select the pieces of information you want to include and the visual materials you want to 
    include (photos, maps, very short videos, music, etc.) 
    3. Make sure you have about 3 interesting facts to organize your presentation around. 
    4. Prepare your speech. You can write this down and rehearse it, but you MUST NOT read it 
    aloud during your presentation. 
    5. Time yourself. Your presentation should not last more than 3 to 4 minutes. As a rough 
    estimate, the average person speaks about 125-150 words per minute, which means your 
    presentation text should be no longer than 600 words. 
    6. Create your slides in Google Slides. 
    7. Add Screencastify to your Chrome browser. It only works with Chrome, so make sure that 
    is what you are using. Find Screencastify ​here​. 
    8. Open your slide deck and start presenting the deck in "Presenter view" (be sure to click the 
    arrow next to the "Present" button) 
    9. Start a browser tab recording. In order for your audience to hear and see you, choose to 
    turn on​ "Microphone" a
    ​ nd​ "Embed webcam". C
    ​ heck out this ​info​ to see how you do this step 
    by step. This ​video​ is also helpful.  
    10. Don’t worry, you’ll have it down to a fine art in a few minutes!
