Presentation



In creating the project presentation, I struggled a lot. I tried a lot of different interfaces to upload my video, but none worked with my software and what I was looking for. I tried the YouTube video at first, then Prezi, then four other suggestions from the presentation. Eventually, Windows Media Player worked and was how I was able to complete the presentation.

This may have been one of the hardest projects I've ever done since I have no knowledge in creating presentations and don't believe my computer had compatibility with the sources I tried to use. 

Below is a self-critique of what I believe my strengths and weaknesses. 


Missing or lacking
Meets the minimum but could be improved
Excellent
Is there a logical flow and sequence of content? How could it be improved?

It could be improved by using a different interface to present the information.

Does the presenter anticipate questions and answer them in the right place? At what points did you have questions that were not answered?


I think the presenter gave information throughout when it was presented
Did the presenter grab your attention in the first 30-60 seconds?


Yes. Giving an introduction to the organization helped me understand the cause
Did the presenter ask questions and spark your curiosity?


I wanted to know about the organization and that was explained followed by
Did the presenter set the context with a concise explanation? Is it clear what the presenter is trying to share?


Yes.
Did the presenter validate any claims?


Yes, sources were cited at the end
Did the presenter avoid inconsistencies and errors, typos and unbelievable claims?


Yes.
How well did the presenter avoid clutter?


Clean presentation
What did the presenter do to ensure readability?


Made the font size large enough to read
Did the presenter say it, and then show it or did he/she read the slides?


Yes, read what was on the slide then ellaborated

Here is the link to my presentation:



What I've learned from the whole experience in my work and in editing a classmate's is that there is an art to creating things digitally. It's not as easy as it seems, I've learned that. Some classmates had an easier time with it and it seemed to come naturally, they were able to get very creative with their presentations. From what I saw, most of the presentations were done through YouTube, where a few were completed using Prezi.

Overall, I take away this presentation was a learning experience and definitely something I can continue to learn from for future projects.
