Reading Presentation
You are asked to do a reading presentation based on a particular theme of each unit we are on. As with any academic project, you will have to do appropriate research, narrow down your theme, create clear and correct text, organize your material, and document all information from sources.
Before your presentation:
Copy a class set of peer feedback form for your classmates
Hand in PowerPoint printouts/research materials if available (optional).
In the presentation (3 minutes for each presenter )
Greeting/Introduce yourself/Introduce your topic/ Purpose/ Body/ Conclusion
The introduction:
The introduction to your presentation must gain the interest and attention of your audience as well as provide the specific purpose of your speech.
1. Greeting: welcome remarks, self-introduction
Example: Good morning, everyone. My name is ______. This morning I am going to be presenting to you about ______. (objective)
2. Talk about which page #, and which part you are presenting from the textbook
3. Talk about TOPIC and TOPIC SENTENCE
The body:
The body of a presentation contains your main points and supporting material from the article you researched. For your audience to comprehend and retain your major points, you need to organize your material in a straightforward manner.
Explain-
4. what the reading is about. (CONTENT) USE YOUR OWN WORDS. DO NOT READ THE PARAGRAPH.
5. what your classmates can learn from this reading. (SO WHAT)
6. Make some questions about the reading to your classmate.
7. Raise some points for your class discussion.
The closing:
1. Summary of your essay
2. Conclusion
3. Q & A session
4. Final greeting
After your presentation:
Collect all the peer feedback form in class.
Sum up all the comments on one page and give it back to Alice and fill out self evaluation form the following week.
In order to deepen your learning experience and think creatively in any topic, you should go beyond simple information recall and give personal responses and interpretations of a given topic, which are to serve as a basis for discussion.
Use PowerPoint effectively
PowerPoint is used for the audience to look and follow your talking, not for the audience to read your written notes.
You need to use charts, arrows and graphics to explain your well-organized ideas logically.
1. Is your font too small?
2. Is your font’s color too light?
3. Are there too many colors on your texts?
4. Do not give a full text on the PowerPoint . You need to either outline or summarize your materials.
5. Write your texts on a CLEAR background. Can your audiences be able to read your texts on the PowerPoint?
6. You either read your texts on PowerPoint first and then summarize your talk.
We can NOT read and listen to your talking simultaneously.
NOTE
Every member of your group will speak during the presentation in order to get individual grade.
Please do not keep the whole class waiting for you to fix the machine or your file.
Visual aids are encouraged to use for presentation (V-8, slides, props, posters, sound effects, art work, and costumes). Please feel free to email me or talk to me during the break if you have further questions .
