Module 4 – Case
PRESENTATIONS
Presentation
Create a PowerPoint slideshow as described here. Add audio
to your presentation by using the “Record Narration” option under the Slide
Show tab in PowerPoint. You will need a microphone, which should be built in on
most computers. (There is no need to have a real audience, unless you want to.)
If you have difficulty recording, submit a full script in
the notes section of your PowerPoint slides that reads the way the narration
would have, had it been presented. Your submission will be assessed based in
part on this script. You may include colloquial expressions that you would use
(if any) if speaking to a real audience.
The presentation must have at least 9 slides, including the
opening and ending slides which should not be blank. Include the appropriate
recorded narration for these slides.
You are acting as a nutrition consultant to the restaurant.
Address your presentation to Mr. Adrian Hammersmith, owner, and his staff at
Adrian’s Steak House, 974 South Cobb Drive, Marietta, GA 30060. You will
explain information about the Healthy Dining program which can be found at the
Healthy Diet Finder (2015) home page (http://www.healthydiningfinder.com/home).
The home page is primarily for diners. A link at the bottom of the page, labeled
“Nutrition Services,” takes dietitians and restaurateurs to information about
nutrition and other services. Your presentation should provide the audience
with an overview of the program, including information about the services
provided by and benefits of Healthy Dining. Additionally, you should have at
least one slide that describes the impact on the staff that adopting the
Healthy Dining practices will have.
Save your PowerPoint presentation with recorded narration as
a slideshow. Submit it by the module’s due date.
Assignment Expectations
The PowerPoint slideshow must be professionally prepared and
include narration. (PowerPoint presentations should not be larger than 10MB.)
Record the presentation as a slideshow and submit it.
Your slideshow will be graded according to the Trident Oral
Communication Rubric (TUI, 2015).
No citations and formal bibliography are necessary for Case
4.
