Presented my information today and, overall, thought it turned out pretty well. Surely there are things that were worthy and things that could use some enhancement pills to get better.
I think my biggest strength for the presentation was the information that I had gathered. I completely obliterated the task of collecting information and connecting it to my identity leaving it with about 2 hit points. I believe I provided a sufficient amount of information, provided examples and images, and was clearer than a window in identifying the identity I wish to focus on, hopefully.
One thing I know I need to work on is presenting the presentation. I tended to just stay in a bubble and read off of my paper with notes etched on it, occasionally making the quick glance at the audience to see if people were still there. I have always had this large obstacle in my path when I have to present something.
Moreover, I believe I was successful and got my research across quite fine.
peace, love, lol!
I can relate to your end result. It seems that I had a similar experience, because I felt like I had the actual presentation down, but when it came to performance, I was sluffin'.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling confident, though we are kind of mixed with our strong suits. But I definitely noticed your weakness (not to try and discourage you), and all I can say to help is mentally rehearse a few times before presenting. Just go over each slide, and just imagine some of the key things you want to say, that way when the slide comes up - you don't end up reading off it completely. As long as the key ideas are there, words will just flow in to fill up the blank spots.
ReplyDeleteOverall, nice presentation dude, you definitely did get the information part down :D
You mention lots of specific aspects you would work on if you were presenting the info again. I could see how attention to these areas would make for an even smoother presentation, especially in relation to connecting the evidence to the main argument. Nice job sharing your research and assessing what you learned! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Riki, and am glad that you know what your missing! Hopefulyy you can implement these changes into your next presentation down the road!
