Constructing an Outline
Consider the level of detail of your report and what you want to say in your presentation, then determine how much of that information should be displayed visually and how much you should present orally. We'll use the information from our Introductory Memo as an example:

Major Discussion Topics	Main Points of Support	Surface-Level Details	Discussion / Oral Presentation Level
Interest in Your Major (Finance)	Employment / financial security	2-3 reasons this career goal is important to you	Expand on how your future career will allow you to achieve these goals and what these goals mean to you	Throughout your oral discussion of the information, show relationships between the different ideas, such as how thinking on your feet may relate to being a Finance Broker or why Insurance Sales will provide you with networking opportunities and possibly allow you a better opportunity for Entrepreneurship.
	Societal status	2-3 reasons this career goal is important to you
	Networking opportunities	2-3 reasons this career goal is important to you
Future Career	Finance Broker	2-3 aspects of interest for this possible career	Expand on why these career aspects appeal to you and how each of these careers could possibly fulfill your interests
	Insurance Sales	2-3 aspects of interest for this possible career
	Entrepreneurship	2-3 aspects of interest for this possible career
Impact of English 302	Professionalism	2-3 ways this skill will aid you in your future career	Expand on why these skills are important in your future career, why they may need developing, and how you can develop these skills
	Developing application / job-promotion materials	2-3 ways this skill will aid you in your future career
	Thinking on your feet	2-3 ways this skill will aid you in your future career

Remember you will want to display some of the surface-level details, but refrain from including information that would be better expanded upon through discussion. Essentially, the first three columns would contain information that would be good to display in your presentation, while the "Discussion / Oral Presentation Level" should not be included in the slides themselves, but in the accompanying presentation discussion.
