(Competency 1: Chooses and narrows a topic appropriately for the audience and occasion) Listening to my presentation it became aware to myself that I was pretty narrowed down and on topic, with the topic, I chose to speak about. I threw out a question to get the audience’s attention to get them involved. When I said that rhetorical type of question I needed the audience to get a mindset of what my presentation would be about instead of getting into a blank mindset. I made sure that the introduction seemed interesting if you wanted to succeed in the real world of business. In this Category, I gave myself a 5 for the involvement of the audience and the approach to the listeners. (Competency 2: Communicates the thesis/specific purpose appropriately for audience & occasion) In this category, I gave myself a 4.5. I feel like I could’ve given a few more strong points that backed up what it takes to be successful. I feel like this part of the presentation was a little dry and I could’ve spiced it up to keep the attention of the audience. Talking about the Measurement Profits for success in a business setting is important but sometimes can get lengthy. I felt like I had a lot of information but could have laid it out better within the speech to have my audience on board and engaged in listening. Another …show more content…
But I could have better assured the audience with my information if I gave more eye contact along with relating examples they could relate to get them engaged. I was mostly looking at my paper and making sure I got every important detail I could’ve given to better explain my topic. I felt myself getting nervous when I look up and see that people are staring at me it gives me a feeling that my information isn’t clear. I should look past that and be more confident when I consider the crowd. In this category, I gave myself a
Having those makes my presentation deserving more than one point that I got from the class. Regarding about using the apple during my presentation is so risky because I do not eat apples, but in order to do an effective presentation I must do it and also there is a big purpose of it and that why I have to include the apple. Next is gesture, I think I did good on moving my hands because I actually used it to express on what I am going to say. And on my visual aids, I think there is no error and I used all the high quality pictures and somehow those pictures are connected to the topic that I talked about. Lastly, my appearance, I dressed up for that presentation because of the requirements even I hate wearing professional clothes. For my perspective, I think I still deserved more than one vote, but that is my personal perspective and it already happened, so I cannot do anything with
The intended audience for the presentation is identified and their level of understanding of the presentation topic is assessed
When I was presenting, I made sure that I spoke in a clear voice and maintained sufficient eye contact with audiences. Besides that, I also interacted well with audiences by asking them questions during the presentation. Our tutor complimented us for our presentation. She also said that our presentation was well organized, and that we are able to link our presented content to the case study.
The most important thing when presenting is your interpersonal skills. Throughout this project I believe my interpersonal skills were good but there were plenty of improvements I could have made, I have been really successful in developing my interpersonal skills, I believe that it should be important that every student has the opportunity to improve their presentational skills or communication skills because at some point they will need it.
I thought I did a good job with eye contact. I scanned the room trying to look all directions but I didn’t look into every single person's eye’s so scored myself a 5 in this category. The eye contact I felt was mostly consistent but I still think I looked down too much so I scored myself a 4.
I don’t think that I did so well during this last presentation. I did a lot of research about the drone I was talking about and I knew what I was going to say about the product. When I got up there I realized I didn’t know it as well as I thought I was going to. I should have put more practice into my presentation. I felt like I practiced but it was all in my mind. I never really put my PowerPoint up and practiced it in front of someone. When I got up and started my presentation, I went through my attention getter and when I took my eyes off of my cards I never really knew what I was going to say next. It was a lack of practice. To prepare for my presentation. I did a lot of research about the drone the
I am giving John a 3 for both body language and poise. John made gestures that helped his overall presentation, and he made few mistakes while displaying little tension. My advice would be to use a few more gestures to help the audience gain a further understanding, and to be more relaxed while presenting. John was perfect with both enthusiasm and elocution, and I am giving a score of 4. John showed a strong presence throughout the whole presentation, and had a strong voice with no pronunciation errors. I am giving John a 4 for organization because he presents his plan in a logical manner that is easy to follow. Also, I am giving him a 4 for pronunciation because his presentation had zero grammatical errors. The content he displayed was precise, and makes it easy for the audience to follow. Overall, the Not Your Father’s barber shop will succeed due to its
I feel as though I addressed my goals effectively through my visuals and the video. I did everything I intended on doing for my presentation and was very proud of the outcome of it. One thing I would have done differently is I would have created a script beforehand to present more smoothly and I would have added some statistics to help support my points I made.
I have built my career as a business professional using my education and diverse experience gained in Accounting, Human Resources, and Management to implement successful initiatives across various industries. Continuous improvement is my focus achieved through understanding the definition of success and maintaining adaptability.
I am a very active volunteer in my community. I previously worked with the Special Olympics as a team leader to create podiums for the medal winners. My classmates and I created wheelchair accessible ramps for the disabled. A challenging task for the project was being able to get the material we used to withstand the outside elements. With hard work and determination we were able to get the task done well before the deadline. I enjoy working with disable people because they’re just like everyone else they want to have fun and spend time with friends. I like the joy I can bring them by volunteering my time and efforts. I also volunteer with habitat for humanity to provide underprivileged families with a place to live. My vocational background
My anxiety level during my presentation was high and I need to learn how to control it. I feel that this could be accomplished by speaking in front of a mirror and practicing what needs to be said. Another aspect that I could work on is slowing down just a little bit. I know I was being timed and I only had five minutes but, I need to make sure that the students were more comfortable with the lyrics to the song. My third area of my presentation that I felt needed work on was engaging with the students more. I could have asked more questions based on the song to see if they needed help on parts of the
I felt that my group (Cubs) presentation wasn’t as bad overall, however, there are certain areas where we all could of improved on and benefitted from this greatly. For instance, doing a PowerPoint presentation we could held a clicker. Having a clicker, looks professional because you don’t have to worry about reading your script and having someone stand by the computer in order to click to the next slide. Secondly, I feel that I could have been louder when I was presenting. I sort of can admit to my flaws without dwelling on it as much. When I speak for long periods of time, I tend to get dry mouthed. Meaning my words can come out a bit slurred and forcing the audience to not understand my message. I try to talk slow when I have to present
After assessing my presentation, I would give myself an A-, because I did work hard, prepare and tried to improve, which showed in my presentation. Overall I am proud of this presentation and was mostly happy with how it turned
Do you think that the focus of your presentation was clear to your audience? How did you convey this focus? (e.g., Was your thesis statement clearly identifiable when spoken? Did you preview your main points?)
One of the issues I saw when watching my speech was my eye contact. While I did try to look up as much as possible, I found that I kept flicking my eyes up quickly rather than keeping eye contact for a longer period of time. This was distracting for me as I was watching it. I only had slight eye contact when I went to reference my visual aids. My lack of eye contact showed that even though I had practiced my speech, I came off as unprepared. With what little eye contact I did have, it showed that I was reading what I had in front of me. Larson stresses the use of eye contact very heavily in the book. He says that the person should “look up as often as possible” ( ), which I seemed to have done;
