At
DAC:
Before You Speak
1) Attend the Speakers' Breakfast
in room 205AB - 7:30am - 8:30am
- Meet your Session Chair to go over
details and make sure that your presentation will be in place and ready
to be projected 15 minutes prior to your session.
- Make sure that your Session Chair has
the material needed to introduce you appropriately.
- Somebody from the Presentation Help
Desk will meet you there to answer any unresolved questions. If you
still have any questions make sure to pose them there.
This is absolutely the last time to hand over last minute changes to the AV consultants so that they can load your file to the presentation computer in your auditorium to perform a final check for irregularities (e.g. font problems, file problems, etc.).
2)
15 minutes prior to your session
- Work with the A/V Room Monitor to ensure
your file is properly loaded on the computer.
- The Session Chair will meet with you to insure that the A/V consultant
has loaded your file, to clear up any questions you might have, and
to apprise you of any changes.
- The Chair will introduce each paper
in order of the program. If by some chance a speaker is missing, the
Session Chair will announce that fact and leave a hole in your session.
The audience at DAC usually computes the exact time and place of the
papers they wish to attend well ahead of time and so we cannot move
papers forward.
- Sit in the front row, near the lectern
and move to the lectern when your paper is first introduced. The session
chair will place the microphone around your neck. A microphone at the
lectern is also provided as a backup. Your title slide will be on the
screen when you are being introduced and the Audio/Visual Assistant
will have used it to check the focus. Don't read your title or repeat
the names on the paper, they are on the slide and in the Proceedings.
Go directly to your overview or statement of the problem.
