Presenting your project to the class

In addition to watching Ken's video (see below), we'll begin the process of presenting our projects to the class. We've agreed to a 2-5 minute time frame. Here's an outline idea:

1. Audience: Tell us a personal story that will lead us to your idea of "an easy way to make the world a better place." Get our attention. Let us know why this is important to you.
2. Purpose: Tell us about your project. What did you do to get the word out?
3. Context: Tell us how this project was implemented as a college student with a busy schedule. How did you share your idea with other busy people? Why did you think this project would work? Did it work? It's okay if it didn't.
4. Close: Inspire us to make the world a better place.

We'll be grading the presentations together. Here are some things we agreed to look for:

1. Creativity: uniqueness of project or presentation or both
2. Clarity: presentation easy to follow and understand
3. Presence: body language and oral ability
4. Engagement: holding our attention and interest
5. Visuals: visibility and quality
6. Quality of feedback: listening to other presenters and comments

Sound good?
