Local (optional) instructions for virtual practice

  • The virtual meeting is for students to observe other projects, get feedback on their own, and practice defending your work to judges questions.
  • Projects do not need to be complete, and you can put your presentation together as a finished piece, a work in progress or just an overview of what you have done so far.
  • Students must compress their recorded presentation, in order to deliver it.  Known methods that work are to record the presentation in ZOOM, send a google link to the presentation or a link to the you tube channel.
  • You should use a slide presentation in your video to present an explanation of the project up to 12 minutes.  This should be similar science-research presentation as ISEF or any other formal scientific lab report, but in slide presentation form. 
  • The AL Regional JSHS competition is a face to face competition that requires the same format, so its a good use of time.
  • The presentation should be 12 minutes and you should prepare for a 6-minute virtual defense in the virtual meeting.

  • :some recommendations
    • do not email me a video and just expect it has arrived.  Likely it has not.  Wait for confirmation.  
    • use zoom to make an ultra compressed video and email it to me.  Doing it in Zoom will go through email while other forms of recording will exceed the limit.
    • use google drive to share any format or plan with me as long as you can assume I can open the file type.  You will need to confirm that I can open the file.
    • upload any format in mp4 to You Tube channel and send me the link.
    • YOU MUST SEND IT AND look for a confirmation form me within 48 hours.
