Reflection on the oral presentation 2

The second oral presentation came as an end to our one-month-old campaign on spreading awareness about the link between ones diet and global warming. Our team was the last to present our ideas and solutions to the problem we had come up with. We presented last Thursday. This gave us a lot of time to prepare for the presentation.While compiling the presentation slides, we realized how much work we had done in this one month time, as there was so much to present on. There was a large number of slides, compiled together only after the assent of all the group members. This made our slides interesting enough to attract the audience's attention and the flow came out pretty well while presenting.

The presentation went well. I could clearly see an improvement over the first presentation in all my group mates. Kai Ren was our leader throughout the campaign. He is a vegan himself and is extremely passionate about diet related issues that are responsible for the warming of the earth. He convinced each one of us that there is a link between ones diet and global warming before we started our work. This gave us a belief in the project which could be seen while we were presenting our ideas and solutions to the problem. We managed to answer all the questions that were put before us by the panel of judges confidently.
We practiced each person's part as a group only once and this might have been the reason why there was a problem in switching  presenters every time. I strongly believe that each one of us is capable of doing much better if we improve on areas like grammatical errors in speech.

Comparing with the others groups I felt that our presentation exceeded the time limit of 20 minutes by only a few minutes while others took over 45 minutes to finish. I hope we get some benefit for this!
I am very proud of all my group mates for their dedication and commitment that made this project possible. We bonded well during the construction of the displays and conducting interviews and came to know each other well. I think this helped in the division of the slides among us as we knew each other's strengths and weaknesses.

 Seeing my individual performance, I feel that I became more nervous when I faced the class than I was before. I managed to present but I know that it was not my best. I was carrying cards to remember the points during the presentation and in reading from the cards, I forgot to change the slides on time as I did not look at the screen at all.These small errors made me even more nervous while presenting but there was one thing I managed to remember which was to "keep talking", as Ms Brenda always tell us.
Sadly, there is no CG1413 for the cows shown in the left!
