Presenting Practice (5/1/19)

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Rationale:

Practice presenting presentation for CURES in BIO symposium.

Procedure:

  1. Presented presentation in front of peers.
  2. Answered questions and received critiques from peers.
  3. Listened and critiqued other peers’ presentations.

Results:

The following list is a of suggestions and critiques my presentation received.

  • start strong by explaining the significance behind the whole project at the beginning
  • be clearer that the methods are the not just one slide
  • mix up speakers, instead of having person A talk then person B talk then person C talk

The following list are critiques directly for me.

  • pronunciation and remembering the different names of the structures
  • explain all the aspects of the video first before showing it
  • loop and slow down the video

Conclusion:

Practicing in front of peers is a great tool because it allows for feedback which allows for improvement before the actual presentation.

Future Work:

Present individual project at CURES in BIO symposium.
