I've been waiting to write this blog until I had all the details finalized for the application part of my project. Well, that time has finally come! I've arranged for the Coordinator Supervisory Special Agent from the Organized Crime Branch of the FBI to speak to the entire upper school during activities period on March 27th. He's going to give a presentation, and he's also more than willing to answer any questions thrown his way. This is really going to help with the progression of my project because it is going to pertain exactly to what my senior exhibit is about.
I intend for my final presentation to be a continuation of the facts and scenarios that my public speaker will touch on, but I still don't have an idea for how I can include the audience into the presentation. I'm sure I'll think of something... I'm really not too worried about it. More to come on my final presentation, and I'm also intending to write a reflection blog after my application is complete. For now all I can really do is wait.

Can you send out a mass email asking students to email you questions. Sometimes students are shy about asking in front of everyone vs emailing you before hand and then you would already have questions prepped in case no one has any. This would get people thinking about the presentation beforehand and thus maybe engage them before the presentation even begins. Just a thought. I am looking forward to this because I know next to nothing about the FBI!
Brendan,
I like Mrs. Blashford's idea. Perhaps in the few days before he comes you can remind people at morning meeting and give them some sense of what he will talk about and perhaps that will help them come up with questions.
If you are not sure what he will touch on beyond terrorism, perhaps you can ask him for a basic outline? That also might help you figure out how to get the audience involved in your final presentation-if you now some specifics that the speaker will talk about it may spark some ideas.
I also like the idea of doing a journal after his visit.
Mr. E.
