Your colleague Carly recently gave her first presentation to your department. Before starting her slide show, she took a few min
utes 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?
Use a remote control to advance slides when possible.
Explanation:
Carly gave a presentation using projector. She very clearly explained all the contents of each and every slides to the audiences and was very careful not to obstruct or block the projection. Carly was going very well with her presentations, when she found that two of her slides were out of order and became nervous. But she managed to recover them quickly.
The guideline that I can provide her to improve her presentation skills is to use a remote control when advancing slides. In this way she can show her slides in the projector in order without any mistakes. Also she can check the order of her slides before the beginning of the presentation in order to avoid last minute hassle.
The remote control will advance the slides accurately and orderly.
Thus the answer is ---
Use a remote control to advance slides when possible.
Andrew taking two cupcakes instead of one results in one family member losing their cupcake. This is an example of <em>the tragedy of the commons</em>. This term is used in social science to describe the behavior of an individual who overuses a limited shared resource in his benefit. This is done to obtain an individual short-term gain that provokes a long-term loss for the group. This is a behavior that shows an individual caring for his self-interest and not caring for the common good.
