I think that I performed well on my presentation, specifically on the actual slideshow, people
complimented on the way that I had layed out my slides and that my graphics were very helpful. They also liked the fact that I had not included much information in my slides, giving away the info in the speech accompaniment. Many people said that they enjoyed my speech, and that it was inspiring watching me talk; albeit about Singapore. I personally thought that the slides were better, as they set the foundation of my entire presentation. I hadn't prepared for this talk and relied entirely on the slides to know what to talk about. Also, I used the graphics on the slides as a basis for a lot of my large of my large hand movements, which apparently people love (that was a really bad add-on).What would I improve for future presentations/projects?
I got full score, sooooo, not much (is that bad grammar?). I thought that my
presentation/speech was one of the worst I've ever done, but other people - as I have said above - found it very good and even inspiring. Next time I might do a little planning for my speech, just a few points, nothing much. I also ad libbed a bit during the speech, mentioning worthless facts such as the banning of patterned shirts, which had nothing to do with anything.
3) What did I learn from my preparation in addition to the presentations of others?
I learnt from my own presentation that Singapore's location wasn't just key because of the fact that it was central, but also because of the trade winds, which came past Singapore. I learnt from Lily's presentation that two of
the largest industries in Toronto are publishing and meat packing, I learnt from Nick that Nanaimo is on an island in Southwest Canada and is the best place in the world to go bathtub racing. I learnt from PJ that the city of Aberdeen is also known as the Granite City, Allison told me that the New Ulm Fire Department was originally known as the New Ulm Fire Company (no offence, but to me that sounds like they started fires).
Yes, there is a bathtub in that boat
What was my analysis of my performance?
My teacher's analysis was 40/40 but mine is definitely different. I'll put it this way, if 10 was for graphics, 20 for info and 10 presentation I'd give myself the following score:
Graphics 9/10
One of my pictures was of a man's head and another was a graph in which all the sections looked the same.
Information 19/20
I think I did well but I should have mentioned Changi airport
Presentation 8/10
While I spoke with a good clear voice I felt a bit awkward doing it and I rambled on a bit.
Final score 36/40=90%= A
Thats it.
