Educational Team Excellence Recognition Criteria Powerpoint Template

1. Educational Team Excellence Recognition Criteria Powerpoint Template Mandatory slide headers are in red Criteria-based expectation examples are outlined below criteria-headers. Slide data presentation should be in colors, format & manner befitting the team & project.

2. Overview • Your power point presentation needs to tell your story using the ETER criteria as an organizing framework. Select colors, graphics and data to illustrate your criteria compliance, but remember: quality not quantity is your best practice. • Unless your team used the ETER criteria as your process, there may be criteria elements not present in your project. If this is the case, simply explain on that criteria slide why your team did not address this element. Do not try to Fake-it-to-Make-it!

3. Overview • Make sure your project title or your criteria 1a explanation identifies your project as either a problem solving or an improvement project. • A Problem Solving Project is usually a search for a new solution or practice that does not currently exist to resolve an issue or satisfy desired expectations. • An Improvement Project is changing an existing practice, that is not meeting expectations, for the better in order to comply, approach, meet or exceed desired performance levels.

4. Mandatory Slide Header PROJECT SELECTION 1.a EXPLAIN how the project was selected. (1 of 2) Criteria Slide Precursor It is a best practice to keep individual slide contents lean & meaningful. This indicator informs judges of this intent and to foreshadow additional information on subsequent slides. • Clear summary (Key data / information) • Selection data / information included • Project driver(s) • Personal initiative, • Organizational OFI, • Grant Commitment • Other Do not include this textbox in your presentation.
