  2. Most common mistake #1

  3. Animal testing, also known as animal experimentation, animal research, and in vivo testing, is the use of non-human animals in experiments, particularly model organisms such as nematode worms, fruit flies, zebrafish, and mice. Worldwide, it is estimated that 50 to 100 million vertebrate animals are used annually, along with a great many more invertebrates.[1] Although the use of flies and worms as model organisms is very important, experiments on invertebrates are largely unregulated and not included in statistics. Most animals are euthanized after being used in an experiment[citation needed]. Sources of laboratory animals vary between countries and species; while most animals are purpose-bred, others may be caught in the wild or supplied by dealers who obtain them from auctions and pounds.[2] The research is conducted inside universities, medical schools, pharmaceutical companies, farms, defense establishments, and commercial facilities that provide animal-testing services to industry.[3] It includes pure research such as genetics, developmental biology, behavioural studies, as well as applied research such as biomedical research, xenotransplantation, drug testing and toxicology tests, including cosmetics testing. Animals are also used for education, breeding, and defense research. Supporters of the practice, such as the British Royal Society, argue that virtually every medical achievement in the 20th century relied on the use of animals in some way,[4] with the Institute for Laboratory Animal Research of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences arguing that even sophisticated computers are unable to model interactions between molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organisms, and the environment, making animal research necessary in many areas.[5] Some scientists and animal rights organizations, such as PETA and BUAV, question the legitimacy of it, arguing that it is cruel, poor scientific practice, poorly regulated, that medical progress is being held back by misleading animal models, that some of the tests are outdated, that it cannot reliably predict effects in humans, that the costs outweigh the benefits, or that animals have an intrinsic right not to be used for experimentation.[6] The practice of animal testing is regulated to various extents in different countries. Too much text

  4. Structure • Say hello, introduction • Define key terms • Part 1, most common mistake number 1. • Part 2, most common mistake number 2. • Part 3, most common mistake number 3. • Part 4, using graphs and statistical information. • Part 5, inappropriate pictures, sounds etc... • Part 6, short break for cup of tea (talk about weather). • Part 7, examples of appropriate pictures. • Part 8, Examples of appropriate graphs and charts. • Part 9, summary of key points. • Part 10, questions. Too many bullet points

  5. Structure • Causes pain and death • Unreliable • Alternatives • Rebuttal – has led to medical advancements

  6. Don’t use complicated graphs or statistics

  7. K.I.S.S

  8. Keep • It • Simple, • Stupid!

  9. How much text do you need? • As little as possible

  10. Most common mistake #2

  11. Look at my lovely Power Point!!! Don’t use pointless pictures or inappropriate colours and sound.

  12. Most common mistake #3

  13. Don’t state the obvious

  14. www.animalliberationfront.com/.../HLScruelty.htm Use pictures to support your arguments http://www.chm.bris.ac.uk/motm/thalidomide/thalid2.jpg

  15. Keep statistical information simple http://warrenpearce.posterous.com/upward-jump-in-lab-animal-tests

  16. Keep it simple. • Don't parrot PowerPoint. • Minimize numbers and complicated graphs. • Give it a rest.

  17. Elucidate
