Today, your task is simple. Firstly, your presentation should already be in the works. Ms. James and I will be returning any outlines that have been turned in (all outlines will be collected on the day of your presentation, so keep track of them) and the day is yours to conference and rehearse for the big presentation day.
The second item on the list requires that you think critically about what makes a presentation work. We will be watching part of a sample Pecha Kucha in class today and then you will be asked to pick a Pecha Kucha from the official website to watch, analyze, and write a blog post about. Think about the following as you view the presentation:
1. What does the presenter do well? Are there any aspects that were particularly effective?
2. What might the presenter do to improve? Are the visual aspects interesting? Do they talk too quickly?
3. What did you notice about the presentation as a whole. What are your feelings about the Pecha Kucha as a presentation form? Do you think you'll be able to fill in your 10 slides?
If you address items 1, 2, and 3, you should have at least two paragraphs or more!
Lastly,
the day will consist of conferences over your Pecha Kucha presentation.
Even if you have yet to complete your Powerpoint or Google Slides
presentation, you should still present a rough draft to at least two partners
(one person at a time). Each presenter and responder have a sheet to
fill out to discuss the rehearsal process and any revisions that need to
be made.Good luck on your rehearsal and Ms. James and I cannot wait to see the final products. Break a leg!!
Bonus: The assignment is worth 10 points. Those posted before class on Thursday will earn 10 bonus points. Those posted by the end of class Thursday will earn 10 points. Zero points for classwork not completed.
