You may use several different types of visual aids for your exhibition. This will only enhance your presentation and retain your audiences attention. o Visual aids can be: Power Point Presentations, video clips, poster boards, posters, overhead projector transparencies, models, handouts, mobiles, diorama, and/or demonstrations. o The visual aids should be large enough to be seen from the back of the room. o Something written on an 8 x 11 piece of paper is NOT a visual aid. o Do NOT bring pieces of paper that will become the visual aids.
