PowerPoint Final Project

Q PowerPoint Final Project: Critique the Professionals The purpose of this project is to provide clarity and application in a world for which communication is of monumental importance and value.  Visit the TED website at Ted Talks Website (Links to an external site.) and listen to any presentation that interests you. Compare the speaker’s delivery and visual support materials with the concepts presented in your textbook. What works? What doesn’t work? Critique/analyze presentation related elements found in the textbook and your own thoughts.  For example: Was the speaker overly animated, were gestures or hand movements distracting or vice-versa? Did the speaker speak too slowly, fast, or evenly? Was terminology easy to understand? Was sense of humor appropriate? Did the audience appear to be interested? If visuals such as PowerPoints or props were used, were they helpful? Were they too busy or simple to follow? Think of times when you watched a presentation that you either enjoyed or did not. What elements contributed to that?   Project requirements: Six (6) to ten slides (not including cover and reference slide) Be creative, yet professional List references at the end of the presentation in APA or MLA format.

I select the video "why India split into two countries. This video is full of gestures and animations. I think it would perfectly describe the situation and never let down the attention of the listener. In this video, the animation is overly used, and there is no physical presence of the speaker. I think the speaker clear all the concepts by using animations. For the success of a presentation, listeners must get the message of the speaker. In this video, the presenter uses an even method to present the facts. Voice tone and ups & down are used to convey the message, and speed depends on the importance of the topic; at the moment of separation of family's speaker slows down its voice, which has good impact on the presentation and grabs the audience's attention by connecting them emotionally.
