FINAL – PowerPoint Presentation
Your final will consist of a PowerPoint presentation on an adolescent, diversity, or social justice
issue of your choice. The text lists various examples that you may utilize (see chapters 5-
8). You may also choose one that is of importance to you as you view adolescents and society
today. Each issue should be based on adolescence.
Your idea for your final must be provided in the week 6 module for approval.
You are to create your presentation as if you are a Social Worker or Helping Professional
who is slated to present at a conference/seminar in order to educate, raise awareness and
advocate for change on your adolescent issue.
You must have a title slide, minimum of 4-5 slides per numbered section below (in blue),
followed by a reference slide. Make sure you use in-text citations in APA format for your
slides just as you would with a paper.
Since this is your Final and is worth 100 points, I am looking for maximum efforts. I want to
be educated, informed, and engaged!
Resources should be not be more than 8 years old. Your textbook and professional journal
articles from Troy library are appropriate to use and encouraged. Your resources
should
NOT
consist of ONLY web sites. Web sites utilized can only come from .org or .gov
sites.

Tips & Pointers
– do not simply clump all of your information in one paragraph and slap it on a slide. Chunk up the information in an organized format with key highlights. I like pictures as it relates to the slides, but it is not necessary for every slide. You can even insert a video found if it is helpful and adds to your topic.
Remember that this should be a professional presentation! What would you do to capture the audience’s interest?
