**********************************************************************************

· What are two things the presenter did well?

· Had a consistent theme to her slides throughout the presentation.

· Kept the points clear and concise.

· What are two things the presenter could do better?

· I love that you included video of yourself giving the presentation, but I’d consider the situation. If you’re giving a presentation on behalf of a corporate entity, they will want the back ground imagery of your video to fit the slide show also. That may be a boring, quiet blank wall, but they’ll want it to fit.

· I would’ve liked a little more detail. The time limit was 10 minutes, you only used half. I would like to have heard your personal thoughts.

· What is one slide that could be better designed? How so?

· The about the author slide. It would have been better with less writing, maybe only bullet points like: psychologist, consultant, and author. It would make me focus on what you’re saying not reading the slide.

· What one slide had the most impact visually? Explain?

· The Mark Twain quote. It would’ve been cool to hear your personal thoughts on that quote.

· Did the presenter’s narration coordinate well with the slides?

· Yes

· Did the speaker speak with enthusiasm? With knowledge of the subject?

· Yes

· Did the speaker bring in outside sources other than just using the book (i.e., videos, quotes, pictures)?

· Yes

· Is there one point that was over explained? One point under explained?

· I think most of the points were under explained a little. It’s hard to do this presentation and tell everything without it being too long, it’s a hard balance to find. Being too short, can be just as rough as too long.

· What are the two most important points or concepts you got from the presentation?

· Fear is ok, but you have to overcome it to be confident.

· Confidence takes practice.

· Did the presentation make you want to read the book? Why or why not?

· Maybe, I think I might be interested, but I could’ve used a little more information.

· If you owned a company, would you want this person to present a slide to your employees? Why or why not?

· Yes, but we’d talk about the video set up first, and we’d maybe work on the content together.

· Write a short critical review that you would tell this presenter about his overall methods, organization, narration, and visual impact. Think about yourself as his/her boss. What would you tell him/her on what he/she did well, ways to improve, and overall professionalism?

· Your overall presentation was very concise. I do think that matters, attention spans are short. However, the content still has to matter too, there has to be a point beyond just giving the presentation. How will this presentation, the things you say, change the person listening for the better? That’s where the good stuff happens! When it comes to your video, I love that you did video! Maybe no tv in the back ground?
