Verbal communication of natural resource issues is crucial in addressing environmental problems/concerns, particularly in situations where collaborative efforts are required to develop practical solutions and effect change. The Delaware Envirothon strives to challenge and promote the development of verbal communication skills in each student participant, which is why an oral presentation was added as part of the competition day. Instead of the previously required poster to be used as a visual aid, the presentations are done using a slide presentation which offers students the ability to not only use audio, but also visual tools in demonstrating highlights of their presentation. The topic of the oral presentation is typically the current issue for the year, with a specific scenario being developed and posted to the website around the month of March.
