Workshop

 

A high school group with the name FCCLA has contacted you and would like you to present a workshop at their fall leadership conference in October on the campus of NSU.  About 20 local high schools will be there, including Tahlequah, Stilwell, Warner, Parkview, and Muskogee.  There will be 20 to 30 students in your workshop and you have 45 minutes to fill.  They have left the topic selection up to you.

 

In class, treat us like your high school audience for the first 10 minutes of the workshop.  Once time is called, briefly explain what will happen during the next 35 minutes of the workshop.  This assignment is worth 100 points and is due Tuesday, June 14.  Please turn in an outline of the entire workshop, any handouts, and a bibliography before your presentation.
