Natural inorganic substances with a distinct chemical composition and recognizable crystal structures are known as minerals. They are the building blocks of rocks that make up the crust of the Earth. The elements oxygen, silicon, aluminium, iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium and phosphorus are the most frequently found in minerals. Trace elements such as copper, zinc, iodine, cobalt, manganese, chromium and selenium are also present in minerals. According to their chemical makeup, minerals can be categorized into two primary groups: silicates and non-silicates. With over 90% of the Earth's crust made up of silicates, they are the most prevalent mineral class. They typically have a crystalline structure, are rigid and mostly consist of silicon and oxygen.
Speaker Guidelines
Organize your research
- Indicate your research's hypothesis and goal.
- Describe your research techniques.
- Incorporate the information gathered and the conclusions.
- Using the information gathered, draw conclusions.
- Be sure to highlight the research's importance and key findings.
Shape your presentation
- Create a list of things to emphasize in your notes so that they are easy to read.
- Along with your slide sequence, practice giving your talk. Make sure your discussion is inside the given time.
- Make your sentences simple. Steer clear of jargon, technical terms and obscure acronyms.
- Prepare your responses to questions that you might be asked.
- Rather than repeating what you say, audio-visuals should emphasize it.
- Unless it closely relates to your research, you should not utilize music, movie clips, or other protected content in your presentation. Please make sure that any music, movie clips, or other similar content you must include is either open source or that you have the right to use it under copyright. Showcase your work to its full potential by using graphics (graphs, tables, charts, etc.) instead of words where necessary.
- Use line graphs to depict trends, bars to compare values and pie charts to indicate how much of an object is represented by each relative component.
- Make sure your accompanying audio-visuals can be read easily from a distance and are brief, uncluttered and easy to understand. Use a typeface that is eighteen points or bigger, at the very least. Given that different users' screens have different widths, this is particularly significant when presenting to an online audience.
- In order to avoid disappointment, make early requests for specialized AV equipment.
