Project Presentation

Welcome to the Show It phase. Your presentation shows your finished work and the thinking behind it: your ideas, plans, challenges, discoveries, and growth as a creator.

Build your slides in Adobe Express. Each section below can use one or more slides, except the title slide. Choose examples that help someone understand your project, and explain what each example shows.

1. Title slide

Include your name, project title, and date on a single slide. Use a bold, readable font and a clean design.

2. Project statement

Write a concise statement in two sentences:

1. Summary sentence: Briefly describe your project, its purpose, and its audience.
2. Connection sentence: Explain how your project connects to two Champion Profiles: Critical Thinking, Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Character, or Civic Engagement.

Example: My project is a digital poster that helps students understand how plastic waste affects marine life. It connects to Critical Thinking and Civic Engagement because I researched environmental data and used my design to encourage people to reduce plastic waste.

Be specific about your goals. If your project changed direction, explain what changed and why. You can use the Project Statement form to get started.

3. Think It

Show the foundation of your creative process.

• Include mood boards, sketches, or visuals that inspired your project.
• Show lists, mind maps, or diagrams of your initial ideas.
• Explain which direction you chose and why.

Choose clear visuals that connect to your final project.

4. Plan It

Show how you prepared and organized your work.

• List the tools, materials, and technology you used.
• Include your steps, schedule, or timeline.
• Describe challenges you expected and how you planned to handle them.

Use a short list, table, or timeline that is easy to read.

5. Make It

Show your effort, changes, and problem-solving.

• Add photos or screenshots of your progress, with a short explanation for each.
• Highlight adjustments or changes to your original plan.
• Share a discovery or lesson you learned while making the project.
• Show a before-and-after or another example of an improvement.
• Include the two peer comments you received and explain what you did with them.
• Show the finished project or a working link to it.
• Credit anything you did not make yourself and label AI use when it applies.

Choose a few strong examples. Explain what the viewer should notice.

6. Final reflection

Explain what you learned and how you grew.

• What did you learn from completing this project?
• What was your biggest challenge, and how did you respond?
• What would you do differently next time?
• How has this experience prepared you for a future project?

Use specific examples from your work to support your answers.
