Question

Terrence gave a speech on the Apollo 11 space mission and decided to show a 5-minute video clip of the launch and of moon landing in the middle of the speech to help illustrate his ideas. However, by the end of the clip the class seemed distracted and bored. What mistake did Terrence make?

Answer 1

Answer: His video clip should be shorter than 30 seconds.

Explanation: A five minute video clip is a tad bit long for a speech. The video will have been okay if his presentation was a video presentation. But giving a speech and playing a video that long was bound to make the audience distracted and bored.
