  4. 1) I already watched the video "How to give an Awesome presentation."

    2)The video to me was very helpful cause it taught me how to make my essay or presentation great just by using an outline that has sub bullets,Interactive chart or sometimes table charts.Mainly use a clip art fro your presentation to come out very good or you can use a climax chart which would help you focus on your story.Less is more which is the key idea that will build a amazing story always use beginning,middle,and end to make your story clear.

    3)The key points you can take away from the video are
    Following a simple structure
    THINKING CREATIVELY
    less is more
    including minimal text that the readers can't see
    Try to just keep one slide while presetting
    use quotes
    Find the messages your trying to communicate with

  7. 1. Video


    2. The video talked about making sure your idea is clear. It said to keep text as minimal as possible. Do not use confusing charts and tables but use clear ones. Visuals are much more informative than words. Keep notes for you to look at. And keep a simple structure with a beginning, middle, and end.



    3.
    A single outline is boring
    Charts and and tables must be clear to be effective
    focus on the story you want to tell
    follow a simple structure with a clear beginning, middle, and end.
    sometimes less is more
    each slide has one idea
    visuals are better
    use minimal text
    use notes
    people can't read and truly listen at the same time

  8. 1) The video talks about how we should all make a good presentation or story and it should have a powerful impact so it wont be boring for our audiences. It should be very clear and it should have a beginning, middle,and end. The story has to have a powerful impact because our audience can know what we are trying to say and trying to tell them clearly. The audience should be able to understand it also.

    2) . Make your presentation clear
    . Build a conclusion
    . Make good points
    . focus on your story or presentation first
    . Make your story creative
    . Have a powerful impact
    . Use paper or sticky notes to take notes then ad them to your story or presentation
    . Find visual ways to tell your presentation or story
    . Support it with photos
    . Make clear charts and graphs

    2. This video explains how to give a good presentation. It explains that sometimes, less is more. If you fill your presentations with too much information, your audience may get bored and stop paying attention. But, you can also lose your audience's interest if you use cheesy clip art and useless graphs. You have to keep your slides clean and organized, with graphs relevant to your information that smoothly flows throughout your presentation.

    3. Based upon my experience, some key concepts I can take from this video are:
    - Keep presentations short and simple
    - Focus on the story/point you are trying to get through
    - Make sure my information flows throughout my presentation
    - Use props, if necessary
    - Keep notes with you, but don't let your audience see them
    - Put effort into your presentation
    - Add visuals relevant to your presentation to better your audience's understanding of what I am explaining

For example to make a good presentation you have to use fewer words that go straight to the point. When you are thinking about things that you can do to entertain the audience try going for a visual presentation with minimal texts.
