The Educational Presentation competitions may take place at county, district and the state level (for senior 4-H members). All presentations should address current issues related to the topic category<\/p>\n

It\u00a0can be accomplished using props (method demonstration), posters or media presentations\u00a0(illustrated talk), or it can be you just speaking and convincing, or simply educating, with\u00a0words alone (public speaking).<\/p>\n
