[nabs-l] giving a presentation

[Kirt]

Sophie,
I would say do whatever is most efficient. If it's practical, just have people in the room call out their names if they have a question, like has already been suggested. Otherwise, if there are so many people in the room to make that approach inefficient, I would suggest just asking someone to help you call on people. No need to be rebellious Lee independent. :-)

>>> I have to give a presentation at a middle school chock full of sighted students next Tuesday. It's not a powerpoint, just a speech. But at the end of the speech, I'm going to take some questions. I could have a sighted person help me with calling on people, but considering the moral of the speech is that blind kids can do anything sighted kids can, I was wondering if there was a way I could do this by myself. Any help would be majorly appreciated. Good luck to everyone as they start their second semester!
