Practise the standard verbs for preparing and delivering an internal tech talk.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a specific, narrow topic for an internal tech talk, rather than trying to cover an entire technology in the same forty-five-minute slot as always.'
We 'pick a topic' — the standard, simple collocation for selecting the subject of a talk. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Trying to cram an entire quarter's worth of learning into one slide deck can ___ an audience remembering nothing specific at all by the end of the talk.'
We say cramming content will 'leave' the audience remembering nothing — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting outcome. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a live demo instead of only slides wherever possible, since watching something actually run tends to stick with an audience far longer than a bullet list.'
We 'include a demo' — the standard, simple collocation for adding a practical demonstration to a talk. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the talk with a colleague beforehand, since a dry run outside your own head is usually the only reliable way to spot the part that doesn't actually make sense.'
We 'rehearse a talk' — the standard, simple collocation for practising a presentation ahead of delivering it. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the recording and slides afterward in a shared space, so someone who missed the session gets the same value without having to ask around individually.'
We 'share a recording' — the standard, simple collocation for distributing a talk's material after the fact. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
