[nabs-l] giving a presentation

[christopher nusbaum]

If it's in a classroom like the presentation Sophie is giving, that
has always worked in my experience. In fact, the only time I have not
seen blind people use that method successfully is at NFB conventions
when they open the floor to questions after a presenter at a general
session.

>> 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!
