Vazquez Arch 2500: A Case Study

It is extremely important that the Learner / group clearly articulate what the problem / situation is to the class. It is essential that the

My visual aid was the strongest part about my speech. I brought in the ingredients to make Tiramisu to show which brands I like to use for the recipe. I also prepared Tiramisu for the class as my hold interest technique. To relate the topic to the audience, I told them that they could make this recipe when they want to impress someone. My credibility was also convincing as I informed the class I had researched and compiled the best recipe. My introduction in general was concise and convinced the audience pay attention to the rest of my speech. I also thought my tone was conversational and not too formal.

The idea of trying to persuade the class into buying into your idea required a much different approach than we are used to, as now class interaction is a much, much larger portion of the project. This approach was, in my opinion, much more involved and beneficial, but, at the same time, worse than a ‘normal’ research project. Being such a new method of presenting, there was a lot of confusion. I heard throughout the week, and even on the presentation day, that people still didn’t quite understand what they were doing. Fortunately, the solution is simple, we just need more experience and practice with this alternative approach to presenting. Overall, I hope we do more innovative and interesting takes on presentations because normal ones are not as fun or

It's eight o'clock in the morning and Dave is kissing his kids before he goes to work. He walks outside and see’s the orange sky lighting up. He slowly makes his way to his ’63 Chevrolet C-10 Short Bed Fleetside, on his way to work. Dave is a construction worker and his latest project is building the Gateway Arch. He lives in Waynesville so it takes him about 30 minutes to get to the location of the arch. He usually eats Mcdonalds about 2 times and day and for dinner his wife cooks. Dave stops right outside of st louis at a Mcdonald's.

Different presentations should satisfy different kinds of expectations. Therefore, presenting a business project to some engineers should be varied from presenting in the university classroom. But in every presentation, the audience is expecting to learn the most essential features from a topic in best simplest form. so the presenter needs to focus on significant points and tries his best to explain them as it is convincing enough. The presenter can accomplish this by using features such as animation screens, colorful pages and using advantage of more visual presentation.Moreover, audience expects that the presentation has a pace which can be easily followed by the audience. In addition, presenter should provide methods for direct networking and connection with the

Another area that I could have improved on is tailoring the talk to the student’s knowledge level because when she advised that she had very little experience of the skill I still used all the technical terminology I had learnt, sometimes without sufficient explanation. This has to be improved because Jarvis and Gibson (1997) advise of the importance of using the correct language to bridge the gap between people with

Oral. Presentation. I felt blood pounding in my ears as my teacher traced the requirements of the presentation onto the white board. The remainder of the class sped by, as I roughly wrote out the phrases that I planned to speak in front of the class in just five short days. All too quickly, those days rushed past me, leaving me back in 5th period, mentally retracing the now creased notebook paper that I had written my poorly-constructed monologue on. The room was silent. I would've traded this silence for the thundering rain on the roof any day. One by one, I watched my peers drag themselves in front of the class to deliver their presentations. As each name was called, I held my breath and hoped it wouldn't be mine. This strategy worked every time-until it didn't. I searched my mind as I walked up to the board. Scared? No. Terrified? That wouldn't work. Mortified? Absolutely not. Confident. Who was I kidding, I could never find that in time. I took one deep breath, then dived into my speech. I can never seem to think about a presentation while I present. As phrases rolled off my tongue, my mind was on anything but verb

Walking down gradually from University Avenue to the park area is a descent from industrial buildings to a picturesque landscape. This green space on the east bluff of the river is mature and beautiful. The topography of the soil is varies and the ancient tree trunks lift the ground up with them. The meandering concrete paths lead you beside the river, and ultimately to the Stone Arch Bridge. Where the land and vegetation open up to carve out the bridge, a grand vista emerges. The bridge leads my eye and curves smaller and smaller over the Mississippi until the rise of the Mill ruins leads my sight up and the skyscrapers eventually lift my head to the highest point of the city. Here our entire history is visible, our artifacts are in the limestone and sandstone that is manipulated to build these old structures. The wealth of the flour industry is seen reincarnated to the present day through the thriving corporate businesses in the sky. This aesthetic relationship of the Mill Ruins and new wealth is so pleasing to the eye, the interest never ends. It is mind boggling, to live in an envelope of two eras, to see what was and what has now become. How would we know our modern buildings and societies are so grand without the memory of the old?

Audiences can be skeptical of both novices and experts, but concreteness is the key to unlock a credible presentation. Give Proof: Audiences fear that a novice will not know what they are talking about, and they will fear that an expert might not be upfront regarding the practicality of an idea. Persuading your audience requires you providing proof of the practicality and applicability of your ideas. Proving these objectives will allow you to gain the audience’s trust. To prove a discredited hypothesis regarding ulcers, a young scientist drank a glass the bacteria that causes ulcers.

The key to a successful presentation is audience awareness. When addressing this board as a professional Civil Engineer, it important that we keep in mind that the board does not come from a technical engineering background. Therefore, it is important to not use technical vocabulary when presenting. Furthermore a great way to simplify things is to use visual aids. Visual aids can help convey complex ideas in a simple and concise manner that will still keep the presentation

Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “We are not the makers of history. We are made by history”. The Arch of the Centuries has been with the University of Santo Tomas since the university was constructed in 1611. Despite being remodeled, one side of the Arch stays original. The original Arch, which faces the UST Main Building, was said to be the main doorway to the university building before the structure was destroyed during World War II. Many Thomasian students consider the Arch of the Centuries as a motivation, because of its tradition and ability to stand through time.

Give background, read what’s on the PowerPoint. Once done say “which leads me to my first point, The Problem.”

     In a Learning team, presentation skills are very important. I would have to say that Presentation Skills would be one of my personal weaknesses in the Learning team. It is difficult for me at times to stand up in front of a room full of people and present a project or conduct some sort of meeting. In order to do so, you have to have confidence that what you?re talking about is accurate and the motivation to actually get up do it. My biggest fear of a presentation would be tripping and falling on my face or

We mainly did so by first discussing what we were each going to be discussing in our segment of the presentation and made sure that each of our segments directly related to the topic. After our discussion we began to formulate slides for each of our segments taking information and research from our papers and putting it into a bulleted form that would be easy to read on each slide. We also made sure to include images to keep our presentation interesting and captivating while also getting our point across. After we had finished our presentation and were satisfied with the information we checked it over for formatting mistakes as well as grammatical errors. Then on the morning before our presentation we ran through our presentation multiple times sorting out and issues that could make the presentation seem poor. We then delivered our presentation and completed the entirety Task

If you have the opportunity, go to the room ahead of time and practice your presentation. Actually speak the words and choreograph your movement. If you can’t get to the room, rehearse in front of a mirror. Rehearsing your presentation out loud will help you be more effective. Anticipating questions will help you formulate your answers before you get in start a live audience.
