Presentation and Speech!

For the past couple of weeks I have been working on my presentation and speech ahead of the Presentation Evening on 22nd February. 


I have enjoyed creating a presentation as it has allowed me to gain new IT skills. I felt that videos of George Bush and ex-detainees speaking would really add to my argument and engage the audience i present to and thus i have learnt how to imbed video's. i have also polished uo my presentating skills in order to be able to interact with my audience to the best of my ability and hold their attention throughout.  


However, i was presented with a problem over my speech and presentation. Originally my speech was 7 pages long, with a 32-slide presentation, lasting for a total of 16 minutes. After my practise presentation I came to be aware that this was far too long, so... I had to cut it!!


Having worked on it for hours and hours over the February half-term i am almost there! I feel that although cutting the presentation and speech was hard, it has enabled me to condense my argument making it more focused and informative, it made me 'get to the point'! 


Therefore, I am proud to announce that so far I have 4 page speech with 22 slides lasting for 11 minutes!! ACHIEVEMENT!


Although I feel nervous for Wednesday, I am also quite excited to be able to present my research and handwork to an audience of people and to see their reaction!
