Technology has revolutionized the way we live, work, play, and learn. It has significantly impacted every aspect of our lives, from communication to transportation, entertainment to education, and even healthcare and agriculture. Technology has become an integral part of our daily lives and has changed the way we interact with one another and the world around us.

Developing technology has had a major influence on people’s lives and has altered the way we work, play, and communicate with one another. The invention of the internet and the mobile phone has made it easier for people to stay connected and exchange information quickly. Additionally, advances in computer technology have enabled companies to automate many processes, saving time and money.

One of the major advances in technology in recent years has been the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI has been used to create autonomous systems that can carry out tasks without the need for human intervention. Examples include self-driving cars and robotic surgery. These systems are designed to make decisions based on data, algorithms, and machine learning techniques. AI has also been used to create virtual personal assistants, such as Amazon’s Alexa and Apple’s Siri, which can respond to voice commands and provide helpful information.

Speaker Guidelines

Organize Your Research

1. State the hypothesis and purpose of your research.
2. Describe your methods of investigation.
3. Include data collected and what was learned.
4. Give conclusions based on the collected data.
5. Emphasize the significance and highlights of the research.

Shape Your Presentation

1. Prepare notes that highlight the salient points of your talk.
2. Practice the delivery of your talk, along with your slide sequence. Be sure your talk fits the time allotted.
3. Use simple sentences. Avoid jargon, highly specialized vocabulary, and unfamiliar abbreviations.
4. Think about questions you might be asked, and prepare your answers.
5. Audio-visuals should amplify your talk, not duplicate it.
6. Do not include music or film clips or other copyrighted content with your presentation unless it is directly relevant to your research. If you must include music, film clips, or similar content, please ensure that it is either open source or content for which you have copyright permissions to use. Optimally display your work—don't use words if a picture conveys it more clearly (graphs, tables, charts, etc.).
7. Use line graphs to show trends; bar graphs to compare magnitudes; pie graphs to demonstrate relative portions of a whole.
8. Make sure your supporting audio-visuals are concise, uncluttered, and easily read from a distance. We recommend that you use a font of at least eighteen points or larger. This is especially important in presentations to a virtual audience because screen sizes vary by user.
9. Request special AV equipment early or it may not be available.
