2013 2-Hour Presentation Reflection

1. The blogs I viewed were:
Dean - Theatre Acting
Indra - Tai-Kwon Do
Joseph - Teaching Elementary Science
Audrianna - Non-profit Organizations
Priscilla - Cheerleading
Ryan - Water Treatment
Andy - Structural Engineering
Catherine - Art In Education
Aldo - Floral Shop Administration
Edwin - The Art Of DJing

2. The main thing that really confused me was the first few presentations I saw, all the seniors referred to their interviews, but as the days went by, suddenly no one even mentioned them. Basically I would like to know what is required content of a senior presentation.

3. What I thought was most important was the speakers ability to grab the audience. What I mean by that is all the presentations I was most excited for, turned out to be the least entertaining. Granted I don't know how entertaining the presentations should be but I know that to keep an audience's attention the speaker should employ things to make their presentation more interesting. An example of this would be how I was not really looking forward to the cheerleading presentation, but in all honesty, it turned out to be the most interactive and entertaining.

4. I am considering doing medical missions as my topic because I have personally taken part in one before and have a real love for being able to provide help to people that not many can offer. Also while I know that many people strive to make something in the medical field as their topic I honestly believe that I can bring something completely new to the table.
