Please leave comments and questions to let me know you have seen this!! Thank you!!
There is some information in the handbook - here are a few extracts:
Part 3: Oral Presentation – report that communicates the completed inquiry process including your main arguments and aspects of your critical review and professional artefact.
The campus-based oral presentation is of 10 minutes duration with a 10 minutes Q & A session (exceptionally this can be done at a distance).
You will need to present a talk that is most likely connected to the use of an audio-visual slideshow (e.g. PowerPoint). You will then lead a Questions & Answers (Q&A) session for discussions that emerge from your audience. When possible, it is asked that you participate with peers in their Q&A session, especially relating to the process of the inquiry and concepts that are discussed in the final presentation.
Remember you can send a draft to your adviser for feedback...
It is also advisable to rehearse your presentation before the day.
Here are some links for thinking about your presentation:

This is great. I have just done a run through and mine was 22 minutes so I will need to tweek it to make it an even 10. Thanks for the links.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this post. After getting back from hospital with my new baby, I am hoping to do final tweaks and start my run throughs tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paula.

ReplyDeleteHey all
ReplyDeleteIs anyone else struggling to discuss all the criteria in under 10 mins? I used the handbook as a guideline but I feel like I rushed throughout and didn't have enough time to go into as much detail as I would have liked. Hopeful the Q&A will cover everything needed. Anyone else having the same issues?
10 minutes 10 slides is the general rule - Claire hit the highlights - and yes the question and answer sessions are really useful for picking up details and points to take away... I get very nervous when I speak - so deep breathing - but you are presenting to a positive audience - this is about the thinking that went on and your achievements form the inquiry and course.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the help and advice Paula, see you on Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteThese comments have been really helpful, I have been so worried about fitting everything in but I figured the Q&A time will allow further detail and have used my PowerPoint as a visual aid to further explain my findings so hopefully it will be successful. Rather nervous about speaking but excited to share my work with you all. See you Wednesday!
