At lunch today, I went to the EPQ meeting with Steph. In this meeting, Steph talked through everything we need to know about the presentation section and also to have a general update on what we should be doing at this point our projects.
Between now and the overall deadline (20th March 2015)
- Meet up with supervisor to complete production log
- Complete final project (essay)
- Make and give presentation
- Submit (a) journal (e.g. blog), (b) production log, (c) final project and (d) materials related to presentation (e.g. powerpoint)
Presentation information
Purpose:
- Provide overview of your entire process - successes, failures and solutions
- Summary of your final product and conclusion
- Public demonstration - in order to demonstrate your presentational skills to an audience of non-specialists
Include:
- Evidence
- Failures - e.g. visiting London libraries
- Successes - e.g. contacting experts
- Journey of your project
- Overview of final product
Tips for presentation:
- Draft
- Don't just read from board
- Script or notes
- Rehearsing = confidence =
This session was really useful because it help put everything I need to do before the deadline into perspective and will help me plan my use of time better (I will make a blog post plan in a few days). Steph also sent everyone the powerpoint from the lesson and a checklist and a handout about the presentation. (All of these are shown below.)
