Presentation Style Tips

The target audience is your classmates, so you should do your best to make your presentation both interesting and informative to them. The presentation should be professional, but need not be too formal -- treat it as you would a presentation to your colleagues in the workplace (don't dress up, but choose appropriately from your normal work wardrobe).
