Stakeholders Presentations: A Technical Presentation to a General Audience

Résumé

We added a presentation to the general public to our senior lab series to expand the range of audiences for communication.  The students attempt to convince a city council that their companies should be allowed to build plants with dangerous chemicals because the companies know the chemical hazards and will successfully protect the public and their workers.  This gives our students another opportunity to practice their presentation skills, with a twist of a non-technical audience.
