Sorry it's been a while since I posted last! Today I just want to quickly share a few videos and sites with you that other students recommended on my last post on presentations! Thanks, everyone, for adding your useful websites in the comments!
First, a video I have also watched and enjoyed on presenting like Steve Jobs, recommended by Kim Sang Jo. (Thank you!)
Next, a speech by Barack Obama submitted by Lee Seung Hwan, who recommends speaking in a strong and clear voice. (I agree!)
Last of all, a presentation tips checklist submitted by Wang So Min - Thanks for the helpful site!

ReplyDeleteFirst video 'present like Steve Jobs' is very interesting and useful for me. You know, Steve Jobs' presentation skills are refined and excellent. And his presentation is very informative and professional. I heard that he have really many rehearsals to speak in public. I think the key to Steve Jobs' perfect presentation is repetitive pratices. What do you think of his presentation ? What are things we can learn from him?
ReplyDeleteI agree that one of the most important things that students can do is to practice many times! I'm sure that Steve Jobs practiced a lot, as well as other professional speakers! Presenting well is not easy and takes time! The other main tip that I think is the most useful is to show enthusiasm. The video host said, "If you're not passionate about it, we're not going to be." I agree with that. I hope that students will choose to tell about attractions and facts that are interesting to them. I hope students can feel passionate about the information they have found and share that with the rest of the class. There were many other good things too - an outline, a theme, simple visuals, etc. However, I think those two things - practice and passion/enthusiasm - are two of the most important elements of a good presentation!
DeleteThank you for your friendly comments.

Confidence is very important, yes, but even students without much confidence can get more confidence by practicing a lot in front of different people! Over the years my confidence for speaking has grown with practice!
DeleteBefore I watch this videos, I thought each contents are really important.
ReplyDeleteHowever, now I think theme is the most important in presentation.
I will present about Berlin, even I visited there, I stayed Muinch almost all day, so I'm studying hard about Berlin. I want to get your feedback ! See you tomorrow.
Themes can be very good for organizing a presentation, that's true! It's hard to say what is the most important thing. For me, I would say practice and passion are the most important things to making a good presentation. However, it's important to have good contents and organization too! :)
DeleteTo practice a presentation, I reference these videos. Thank you. Steve Jobs' presentation is imformative about Apple computer and presentation practice.
ReplyDeleteWow My viedo content is recommended ! I feel really great. Also, Obama's presentation is very helpful. Specially his voice is powerful. If I presented ppt, I should do too!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think your recommendation was very good! I always appreciate your comments in class, too! I think you are a very confident student who helps improve the class by participating actively! Thank you for your great work both semesters!
DeleteSteve Jobs and Obama are good speakers. They help my ppt practice. Good information!!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I think you will do a great job too!
DeleteHi. Today we're presentation in our class. Almost very nice presentation.. but our team PPT is not perfect yet.. and many presentation skills little scarce. Barack Obama has gentle voice and nice. We need slow down in our section.
ReplyDeleteAlmost everybody needs to slow down the first few times they give their presentation! Actually, I often need to slow down in our class too! Sometimes I forget to slow down because I want to tell too many things to the class. But it's always better to slow down. Just remind yourself at the beginning of each section that you can slow down and take a deep breath each time. You will do a great job!
DeleteI think when we do presentation, confidence is the most important thing.
ReplyDeleteSo, I hardly practice my presentation with my partner.
That's great! I think practice is absolutely the best way to get confidence!
DeleteI studied Obama's Speech. I was helped this Speech. I know presentation's way what is more important. Confidence and proper pace is very important factor.
ReplyDeleteI studied Obama's Speech in different class. I was helped this Speech. I know presentation's way what is more important. Confidence and proper pace is very important factor.
DeleteI also studied Jobs's life. Jobs is very smart and has charisma. He especially stick to Jobs's opinion!!!
