1. Darfur's Children
2. In college, you should be able to speak for five minutes on anything. Try pencils.
3. If it only has to be "informative" and not serious, then do something on how to make a sandwich or something. Your powerpoint could be images of you selecting bread, putting on the spread, selecting meats from the fridge, etc. You could even make a few for the class and cut them up into tea sandwiches. You'd get a ton of extra points for being thorough, and everyone would get a kick out of your speech. Take THAT, next presenter!
4. Employee motivation. Motivation in the workplace- theory and practice Check out this website. www.accel-team.com/scientific/scientific_03.html -
5. say about yourself.
6. Pick something that interests you. When I had a five minute PowerPoint presentation, I chose to do mine on why not to have an abortion. I did this because I feel strongly about this issue. Make sure you do your research and find Internet site to place on one slide that you can give as references. Also books, magazines, any kind of reference should be acknowledged at the end of you PowerPoint. Just make sure you do your presentation on something that you know or want to know about, research it then do your power point. My hardest part was giving the presentation not making it. Good luck and I hope this helps.
7. PowerPoint ! got a A for it several years ago
8. I would do environmental/ global issues, there are plenty of things like global warming, pollution, acid rain,also deforestation as well as HIV/Aids, then you could put at the end how you would solve it, there is plenty of information around and would be great Good Luck
