Your research sources are listed in APA7 format on a final slide. Every cited source should also be cited within the PPT on the slides or in Speaker Notes below the slides, as in text citations, where they support your presentation narrative. (See Required References below.)

3. Visual and Professional Design:

• Use visuals (e.g., charts, diagrams, graphics, other relevant images) to enhance understanding.
• Ensure professional formatting, consistency, and clarity.

4. Audio Speaker Notes (How-to Video provided below):

This PPT Assignment is a simulation for a live presentation to an audience. The Presentation shall be presented with an AUDIO narrative covering all slides (EXCEPT Title and References slide).

The PPT program has an Audio “Record” tool to use for recording narrative. If you do not see this tool in your PPT, it may need to be activated. Please review these instructions for how to do this (and other useful information):

Written speakers notes can be included to provide research source references (in text citations) pertinent to a slide and other helpful points, but the main Speakers Notes shall be your Audio speaking narrative. DO NOT SIMPLY READ SLIDES ALOUD. Your audio presentation is an original narrative that tells a story for which the Slides are the key points. You are speaking “live” to an audience.

NOTE: An “AI narrator” is not acceptable. However, if you have a need for accommodation or help regarding use of audio please contact your instructor in advance.

Additional help: Also watch the video: How to record presentations in Microsoft PPT – POSTED BELOW.

5. Required References:

Seven (7) credible references, presented in full APA 7th Ed. Style citations for all sources on a final slide(s).

Sources must also be cited where used within the PPT. Each source on the References slide(s) at the end of the PPT should be referenced also with slides in the PPT where you used the source for your work. Also, for this Assignment, of your 7 references, 3 must be:

• Lingwall Course law text
• Weiss Course ethics text
• At least one actual court case (xx v. yy, case citation); See
