Good afternoon everyone, I have to give a five-minute presentation at a job interview on any topic of my choosing. It's to demonstrate my experience using adult learning techniques. I would usually have group participation, but with it being only five minutes, I'm not sure how I can really do more than ask them questions and get a show of hands or something. I think it's coming out more as a lecture; not really showing many adult learning techniques. Help! Update nobody asked for. I didn't get the job but they told me of a position opening up in a couple months that they think I'd be a better fit for and asked me to apply for it. They liked my presentation and said it was strong point in my favor. Thank you all for your help.
