Question

Janie has been extremely active in the fight against wearing uniforms at her school. A debate will be held where the school board will hear both sides of the argument before making its decision. Janie has been asked to tell the school board why the school should not enforce a uniform policy.
Which type of presentation would most likely benefit Janie?

A. an audio presentation in which Janie shares various audio clips of students stating why they do or do not like uniforms

B. a question-and-answer presentation in which the audience can ask Janie questions about her opinion

C. a slide-show presentation showing types of school uniforms that would look best on students

D. a visual presentation with pictures showing students who look unattractive wearing a school uniform

E. a persuasive oral presentation in which Janie gives reasons for not wearing school uniforms

Answer 1

Answer:

E

Explanation:

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.
