Oral presentations are a necessity to advertise or promote a product! In my recent class activity regarding the oral presentation, it was a joy to work with my group members as well as see other groups present!
To get a presentation perfect, a lot of effort has to be put in. From being well versed in the presentation slides, (as well as what to present) to the visual aids, to even the different nuances in presentation, everything must be prepared sufficiently to bring out the maximum level of effectiveness to impress the audience.
Going through the order of presentation, I felt that Cai Fang's group was excellent! The visuals, the pictures, the preparation. A well versed unit, flowed like a well-oiled machine. In my perspective, their presentation won the top honors for being so smooth in presentation. I was truly wow-ed by it. Seeing them present gave me the jitters, how could my team stand up on par with them?
Next was Noori's group. The presentation went as well as Cai Fang's group. However, overall I felt Cai Fang's group was better as Cai Fang's group seemed so smooth. However, when Noori came up to present, there was this sense of being blown away. His words carried impact, his gestures and choice of words left me wondering that if that had been a real proposal, he'd be the idea sales pitcher. His other teammates did well, but he really stood out.
Skipping my group and onto Bernadette's, her entire group made a wonderful impression on me. In terms of preparation, I think they were the best. Fluency, preparation, choice of words, pictorial descriptions, all were done to the smallest detail. I thoroughly enjoyed their presentation.
I believe my group had many areas that could have been improved. Just focusing on myself, I think more visuals would have been better, However, it was not without attempt. My portion was to explain the binding reason of the problem. That itself was not an ease to find a pictorial example on the quality of life. However, maybe some statistics in the form of graphs might have been good.
On the whole, I loved the entire presentation. Thank you all for being part of my class!
Haha Watson, I felt that your own portion of the presentation was fluid and well done! You were articulate and the example you gave was apt(though professor didn't kind of buy the idea).
ReplyDeleteI think our group presented a decent job and much effort was done on each of our parts to improve on our own delivery despite the criticisms of it from the mock up.
Anyhow, Kudos to all of us!
