Earth's Magnetic field, Presentation

AI Thread Summary
To effectively introduce a presentation on "Earth's Magnetic Field," it's essential to gauge the audience's prior knowledge. Starting with a brief overview of magnetism can help establish a foundational understanding, especially if the audience may not be familiar with the topic. Alternatively, discussing Earth's structure can provide context for how the magnetic field is generated. The choice between these two approaches should align with the narrative you wish to convey throughout the presentation. Engaging the audience from the outset is crucial, so incorporating interesting facts or visuals related to magnetism or Earth's structure can capture attention.

hello,

I have a presentation next week "Earth's Magnetic field" and I was wondering how to start?? what should the introduction be about?? magnetism? Earth's structure?? or what??

Any creative ideas?? I want it to be something interesting and grab people's attention :D

Thanks in advance!

P.S I didn't know where else to post my thread, hopefully this is the right place!

Start at your audience's level and work to your topic. If they don't know/need a refresher in magnetism, start there. Same with Earth's structure. Which one you start with depends on the story you're trying to tell with your presentation.
P.S I didn't know where else to post my thread, hopefully this is the right place!

Homework help, (introductory physics or other sciences), which is another sub-forum in the science education section of physicsforum.

Thanks for replying, I really appreciate it! :)
 
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
