Presentation - Kate

After completing the pass and merit criterias for Kates assignment (regarding written work) we have been prompt to create a presentation which is a part of the pass criteria. The presentation can be based on anything the person wants, so it can be a hobby or something they have accomplished, anything that they can use to inform the members of the group with a structured presentation. For the presentation I chose to stick to the criteria on the assignment brief which is to do with 'interpersonal skills' basically this is regarding to how we communicate with other people i.e. eye contact, gestures etc. These are considered 'skills' and are essential to have an effective conversation with another person. The presentation I created had around 8 slides, I chose to not follow any notes as I understood how interpersonal skills work, in effect I simply chose 8 topics regarding to interpersonal skills and simply spoke to the class about what I knew on each individual topic, eventhough the presentation was based on the powerpoint, I took the class away from the slideshow and focused them on a group talk, it helps keep the audience interested as you are making eye contact aswell as not having your back turned to them. Overall I believe the presentation turned out alright, it seemed to keep people somewhat interested, considering I had no notes and simply spoke about each topic off the top of my head, I was happy with the end result.
