·         Consider:

o    What consent must include

o    The best language choices for requesting and giving consent.

o    What you want to ask or give consent to/for. The more specific, the better. (examples: only kissing, kissing, petting and oral sex, one time consent to sexual intercourse).

·         Your presentation should include an introduction, 2-3 steps or tips and a conclusion.

·         You must cite at least 2 interpersonal communication resources to help support your ideas. (Our resource list is a great place to start.)
