Creating Part 1 of the Final Presentation for the Week 3 Assignment
Part 1 of the Final Presentation must: Be 5 to 7 slides (excludes the title slide and      reference slides) and be formatted according to APA style as outlined in      the Ashford Writing Center. Be presented using Microsoft PowerPoint slide      presentation.  You have a choice of one of the following options for      adding the narrative to your presentation. Option 1 is using voice or      Option 2 is adding speaker notes to each slide. Option 1: Recording your voice on each slide. You can       view the tutorial using this link: adding and       recording voice to each slide.You can also       click on the following links to view the Accessibility Statement and Privacy Policy. If you choose this option, you must include your APA       formatted citation in the speaker note section of the PPT as well. Note: if you use the voice option, make sure your        recordings are clear and concise. It is also important to know that        adding voice narrations that are too lengthy and adding graphics may        cause your PPT file to be very large (megabytes). You may have trouble        loading it to Waypoint. Revisions may be necessary if this occurs. Option 2: Using speaker notes for each slide in the       PPT. You can review the tutorial using this link: adding speaker notes       to your presentation. You can also click on the following links to view       the Accessibility Statement , and the Privacy Policy.  Speaker notes are the typed notes that appear below        the slide that complement the presentation slides. Whereas the slides        will have short bulleted items, the speaker notes will be more detailed.        They are essentially what the presenter would say during the presentation        to explain each of the bulleted points on the slide. Therefore, it is        important that the speaker notes are concise and detailed when        explaining the bullet points.

It is recommended that PowerPoint Slides contain no       more than five bullet points and should not contain more than 5 – 7 words       each. Do not type paragraphs or long sentences on the slide. The       information that explains each bullet point is conveyed via speaker notes       or by recording your voice to each slide. It is required that the Microsoft PowerPoint       presentation include the use of a voice or speaker notes. If you choose       to use the voice capabilities within PowerPoint, you must include your       citations in the speaker notes for each slide. Be visually engaging. For assistance with designing the      visuals for your presentation, view the video Don McMillan: Life after death by PowerPoint (click on the following links to view the Accessibility Statement or the Privacy Policy) or the PowerPoint Best      Practices tool.  Include a title slide with the following:  Title of the presentation Student name Course name and number Instructor name Date submitted Address the sections in the order outlined above      (Introduction, Part I, II, III, and IV). Present the issues with critical thought. Use at least two scholarly sources (none of which      should be media commentary, at least one should be from the Ashford University      Library). Document all sources in APA format (including graphics,      charts and pictures that may be used within the presentation). Wikimedia Commons is a recommended source for creative commons images      (to view the privacy policy, click here). Include a separate reference slide formatted according      to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
