City Connection Reflection

Over the past week, my class 6B has been sharing connections with a city we have lived in, compared to Egypt. We were asked to create a powerpoint that explained and showed the environmental factors, historical factors, statistical information and images of maps and images of the country and its surroundings. We then had to present our presentation to the class and then sit down and watch them present.

I think I did well in making my slideshow visually appealing by using slide transitions and the effective use and placement of pictures and photographs. The content of the presentation is a good overview, this is supported by many photos of Melbourne and its surroundings.
I will improve the amount of text I put on my slides. On some of my slides I had the right amount of text on the slides and on others there was too much text on the slide. I could add more slides which would help reduce the volume of text on each slide and this would help make my presentation longer and even more informative.

For future presentations, I learnt that it is easier to plan out what I am going to say to my audience. I will try to memorizing what I am going to say or write it on notecards for my next presentation.

I learnt from my peer's presentations, that it is difficult to understand what people are saying when they speak really fast. It is better to speak really slowly than to rush through what you are going to say.

I met each of the requirements on the rubric by having the rubric open while I was creating my presentation. I used the rubric as a check-list that I referred back to while creating and editing my slides. I could then ensure that I had everything that was required for me to have in my slideshow presentation.
