In "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly, the narrator expresses how she is an intuitive teenage girl; she knows the trends, and she is up-to-date with the world. She also immediately insists that "I’m not so really dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn’t". Not only does she describe what she should and shouldn't wear, when she arrives at the skating rink she describes the sky and her surroundings, implying that she is highly detail oriented.
After she states twice that she was not a "dumb" girl, and giving reasons why she wasn't, we realize she was trying to reassure herself of the fact. All logic is out the window once she mets with her love interest, and she feels dumb for believing that he would call her; "for all of a sudden I know, what the stars knew all the time ---- he’ll never, never call --- never".

The type of presentation that will most likely benefit Janie in her meeting with the school board will be a persuasive oral one. Since Janie is already an outspoken advocate, it will not be difficult for her to put together an inspiring and convincing presentation.
It would no be a good idea for Janie to present pictures of school uniforms that are attractive because that would detract from her argument. Nor would it be a good idea for Janie to show the school board unflattering images of students in school uniforms as this would seem immature.
An audio presentation would not be nearly as effective face to face with the school board as an oral presentation, and a question-and-answer is likely to take place anyway after Janie's speech.
