This page describes how you can deliver a powerful and effective introduction to The Family History Guide:
What's Inside The Family History Guide is a Google slide with extensive speaker notes that help you present interesting aspects of The Family History Guide website. When you run the Slideshow in Presenter View, learners will see only the website while you see and use the speaker notes. The approximate time needed for the presentation is 50 minutes.
How to Prepare and Present
Note: Do not add screenshots of The Family History Guide to this slide deck. Instead, show The Family History Guide directly from the website.
For the complete set of 2-Minute Demos and tips on how to use them, see the 2-Minute Demos page.
The Intro Video for The Family History Guide is just over 24 minutes in length. It covers the major features of the website, working across the top menu from left to right. If you have 30 minutes available, showing the video and holding a five-minute Q&A session at the end would complete the session.
If you have more time, you can pause the video at selected spots and add commentary. The Intro Video Commentary is a Google doc that corresponds to the 56 chapters in the YouTube video; it adds insights and tips not found in the video. You can study the Commentary ahead of time and select the notes you want to discuss, and you can include commentary of your own.
Note : If you are using an online platform such as Zoom, make sure you are sharing your entire screen, not just a current window.
