Divide speaking responsibilities for a team presentation.

In teams of three or four, plan how to divide parts of a presentation. Your topic is international copyright laws, and your audience consists of an international group of businesspeople who are concerned about using others' intellectual property. Follow these steps to plan your team presentation:

a. Brainstorm a list of topics for your presentation. Consider what would be valuable to your audience.

b. Create an outline of topics for your presentation. Plan on a logical sequence.

c. Identify how much time you would dedicate to each topic.

d. Select topics to cover in your presentation according to knowledge level and interests. Also select someone to open and close the presentation.

After you have finished your plan, discuss your team process. Is everyone happy with how responsibilities were shared and how the team worked together? Why or why not?
