Looks like the WT have released updated information on the 'Apply Yourself to the Field Ministry' section of the midweek CLAM meeting.
The presentations are much much less publication focused.
Obviously not all the (sub) items are used each week.
S-38: Instructions for Our Christian Life and Ministry Meeting
Apply Yourself to the Field Ministry: 15 minutes or less.
This section of the meeting is designed to give all the opportunity to practice for the ministry and to improve in their ability to preach and teach. The students should base the initial call and return visit assignments on the sample conversations provided on page 1 of the Life and Ministry Meeting Workbook. Publishers may decide whether or not to introduce a publication or video from our Teaching Toolbox. At times, the Life and Ministry Meeting Workbook may provide additional instructions for the student assignments. Students do not need to add additional information simply to use all of the allotted time. Some well-prepared demonstrations may conclude a minute or more early. As necessary, elders may receive student assignments.
• Sample Conversation Videos: 4 or 5 minutes. One video of a model conversation will be played and discussed during each of the first three weeks of the month. These videos will feature the initial call, the first return visit, and the second return visit. This part will be handled by the Life and Ministry Meeting chairman.
• Initial Call: 2 minutes or less. This student assignment may be handled by a brother or a sister. The assistant should be of the same sex or should be a family member. The student and assistant may be seated or be standing. The student should choose a greeting appropriate for the area. The sample conversation should be used as the foundation for the discussion.
• First Return Visit: 3 minutes or less. This student assignment may be handled by a brother or a sister. The assistant should not be someone of the opposite sex. (km 5/97 p. 2) The student and assistant may be seated or be standing. The student should demonstrate what to say when returning to visit someone who showed interest on the initial call. The sample conversation in the Life and Ministry Meeting Workbook should be used as the foundation for the discussion.
• Second Return Visit: 3 minutes or less. This student assignment may be handled by a brother or a sister. The assistant should not be someone of the opposite sex. (km 5/97 p. 2) The student and assistant may be seated or be standing. The student should demonstrate what to say when returning to visit someone who showed interest on the first return visit. The sample conversation should be used as the foundation for the discussion.
• Third Return Visit: 3 minutes or less. This student assignment may be handled by a brother or a sister. The assistant should not be someone of the opposite sex. (km 5/97 p. 2) The student and assistant may be seated or be standing. The student should demonstrate what to say when returning to visit someone who showed interest on the second return visit. The student should select his own scripture and link to the next conversation.
• Bible Study: 6 minutes or less. This student assignment may be handled by a brother or a sister. The assistant should not be someone of the opposite sex. (km 5/97 p. 2) The student and assistant may be seated or be standing. This part should demonstrate a segment of a Bible study already in progress. There is no need for an introduction or a conclusion unless the student is specifically working on one of these counsel points. It is not necessary to have all of the assigned material read aloud, although this may be done. Good teaching skills should be highlighted.
• Talk: 6 minutes or less. This student assignment is to be handled by a brother and given as a talk to the congregation

Below are the relevant parts from the JANUARY 2018 - CLAM WORKBOOK
Starting this month, the midweek meeting will no longer feature three different sample presentations. Instead, the Life and Ministry Meeting Workbook will have sample conversations consisting of an opening question, a scripture, and a linking question to pave the way for a return visit. Only one sample conversation video will be played per week. Each publisher can decide which publication from our Teaching Toolbox to use and when to introduce it—whether on an initial call or a return visit. In addition, the workbook will contain ideas for two follow-up conversations. This approach will help us focus on our goal of teaching “all those who [are] rightly disposed for everlasting life.”—Ac 13:48.
Student Assignments: Unless the instructions indicate otherwise, students should demonstrate the sample conversations.
