Class Presentations

In class today presentations were given by several students. After the presentations
as a class we discussed what went well and gave constructive criticism. After taking my own notes and listening to the discussion, there are several points that I will review on my own presentation.
I will review my introduction, I believe it currently lacks what is needed to be considered a good introduction. I am going to add a personal reference to my introduction. A few of the presentations had personal reference in the introduction and it helped me to follow the presentation knowing the speakers feelings and attachment to the subject.
The use of visual aids was also well done in all the presentations. Pictures and props were well used. The pictures were used appropriately to emphasis a point. A few speakers brought in props which I think really helped to relate to the subject. I may add some props to my presentation after seeing how effective they are.
The use of cues on the slides is also something that I would like to review. Everyone did such a good job reading the cues then adding to it from their own knowledge. I am going to review my cues and shorten them if needed and use my own knowledge instead of reading notes or reading off the power point.
All the presentations were so well done today, they have given me a great guide to what I would like my presentation to be like.
