- PowerPoint
Application
Do you help
all majors?
Yes, the CRC works with all
students (undergraduate and graduate students) and faculty at
JMU.
How long does
a session take?
Although there is no requirement
for appointment times, a good rule of thumb is two reserve at least
twice the amount of time that the presentation will take. For
example, if you are in a group presenting for twenty-five minutes,
making an appointment for just a half hour will not allow time for
everyone to get to the CRC, to power up the equipment you may be
using and to get feedback from the CRC staff.
Are appointments required?
No. However, it's a very good idea to reserve a space ahead of time. It helps us ensure that there is staff available to help you or room for your group to practice.
If I want to
video tape my speech do I need to bring my own tape with
me?
Yes. We have video tapes that you
can borrow to record yourself and watch with a CRC student speech
consultant. That tape has to stay at the CRC,
however.
I want to practice with a powerpoint slideshow, what format should I bring it on to use in the practice rooms?
To use your powerpoint presentation in our practice rooms you can access it with
- a USB drive
- a CD
- E-mail
