Germany FAQs

How to make a country presentation about Germany interesting and interactive?

My group has to do a 45 minute presentation about Germany. We have to give a lot of information (in the form of numbers and percentages) that may be potentially boring if we don't have a very creative way of presenting it. We have to talk about the geography, the economy, the culture, and anything else that is interesting or relevant to Germany. We can use Powerpoint, but that's not very interactive. Any ideas/suggestions? Yes we will be having food, but we are mainly concerned about how to present the info.

1. One way to spice up your presentation might be to include some food. While one of you is relating some facts and figures, others could be passing out some German sausage, with crackers and some German mustard to the rest of the class. I suppose your too young to also offer some good German beer, but I would include the figures which show the country as a whole consumes a boat load of beer. They also have very good dark chocolate. You also might be able to find some clothing styles along with some data about the weather. Think beyond what you would normally hear n a lecture and think more about a travelogue style presentation, a combination of travel agent and tour guide.
