Hello all.
That was a tremendous session today, where we looked at presentations we (you) had delivered, some you had witnessed, shared some anecdotal evidence, and crucially, looked at the nuts and bolts of effective presentation delivery.
Some key points emerged from today's workshop, namely: structure, knowledge of subject matter, the import of relevant visuals (more about that next Thursday), knowing your audience, effective research techniques, time and positive body language to name but a few.
It was great to hear so many voices today and in particular when we reflected on the success of the assessed discussion. That was a nice piece of self, peer and group reflection at the start of the class.
Next week we will look at the presentation brief in detail, PowerPoint and what not to do, analyse a presentation and look at some examples of previous student presentations.
We may also consider when you will do your talks, either 29/11, 6/12 or 13/12. You can decide that rather than me allocating you to a date. Thank you for alerting me to the fact some of you can’t make the 29th November session as you are busy working on other projects.
If you could all have an idea what you want to deliver your talk on for next Thursday, that would be great. All the suggestions I have heard so far are great choices. If you are in any doubt, or need a yay or a nay, please e mail me.
Have a lovely weekend,
Mark
