ORAl PREsENTAtION

Good afternoon!

This entry is dedicated to my second oral presentation. It talked about my research project. I think it wasn't prepared well enough because I was concentrated and worried about my chemestry exam. I have to add that this time I have had more difficulties because I had to prepared it alone, without Robin's help.

Anyway, from the 10% which the presentation represents, my mark woulb be a 9% because I was supported by a power point with images related with what I was talking about. Although I spoke for seven minutes I was in time and the oral presentation wasn't boring.
The part of the body language wasn't too good because sometimes I read the paper when I forgot some things. As far as the eye contact I must say I improved since last oral presentation, I looked most of the time at people and not only at Sonia.
As you know I did some gestures to try to attract the people's attention (5%).
Talking about the structure I could say it was good so I believe this part of the mark would be a 10% and the content would represents a 35%. I know it needs changes but at the moment I did the research project, I did the best I could.
Moreover I extended my vocabulary because I learnt a lot of new words like kidneys, liver... in general my language was better than the last oral but it is a part I must improve.
I used connectors, some fillers and a varied vocabulary. Here my mark would be a 17%
To end with it, my pronunciation was comprehensible but I pronounced some words badly. My voice wasn't monotonous and I spoke fluidly but with something missing. (7%)

Final mark: 83%

SELF EVALUATION ON THE ORAL PRESENTATION

Hi there!!

The other day when we had got the break time, Fran and me played a guessing game. In Catalan it is called: pedra, paper, tisora. We did it to know who would start the oral presentation's exam. The rest of the class didn't want to be first. I won the game so I started the exam with Robin.
What was the best is the images of the powerpoint because classmates laughed a lot.

Well, from my point of view my speaking wasn't like I hoped because of my nerves and also the preparation. I think if I had prepared it better I would have known it by heart, so even though I was nervous it could have been better.
From the ten per cent which the presentation represents, I believe that I will have the highest mark because I used a very nice and funny images, the resources were focused on the topic and they supoorted the oral explanation. Moreover the timing was between 5 to 10 minutes or maybe a little bit longer but not much.
As far as the body language and eye contact, they wasn't very good from my part because most of the time I was looking at Sonia and maybe I read too much. In the other hand I did some gestures to indicate some things on the powerpoint. My mark could be a 4%.
The part of the structure as the part of the content was very good I think, so I would put to myself a 9% and a 38%.
I need to improve my language as some of the people in my class said to me, because I made some grammar errors. Really I knew the best form of grammarticaly structures but I failed it because I couldn't control my nerves. The next time I will take a valerian!!!!!!!!!!
Once that has been said I also have to say that I used connectors, some fillers and a varied vocabulary, more or less. Here my mark would be a 15%.
Finally my pronunciation was comprehensible but I pronounced some words badly. My voice wasn't monotonous and more or less I spoke in a fluid continuum. (7%)

My final mark could be an 8,3.
