Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A one-sentence summary that links his subject and purpose to his audience's frame of reference will help him to clearly define his main idea and convey it effectively to the board. This approach will also help him to limit his scope and avoid overwhelming the audience with too many details. Additionally, asking the board to summarize may not be effective, as they may not have enough information or interest to provide a detailed summary.
