Tutoring Session #13

This past Thursday, Abbas and I met at our regularly scheduled time for our weekly tutoring session. Again, we walked down to Seminole Pies and grabbed a pizza lunch while I assisted him in finalizing his survey presentation PowerPoint. Since our last meeting on Tuesday, Abbas had collected more answers and was now in the process of synthesizing his findings into a PowerPoint presentation. He showed me what he had done so far (which was quite a lot) and we discussed the best way to layout the slides to maximize his presentations impact. We decided to begin the presentation with a definition of 'volunteering' (his survey subject) before summarizing the questions asked as well as the responses to individual questions. I assisted Abbas in working on the first two questions, where we added in individual data as well as a bar graph to visually represent the variance in responses. We concluded our lunch by discussing best presentation techniques, in which I advised him to memorize his slides before so as not to read off the board often, use linking words, and make good eye contact. I had him run through his presentation once to practice as well.
