Presentation Project

   As hard as it may be to conduct a self- critique, I think I can find a few things that I did well or could have improved on. As usual, I will start with what I could have done better. I did not ask questions in my presentation. I found myself often wondering how to put that in the presentation. I was asking for donations to MDA so I gave out more information and did not spark enough interest by asking questions. Reflecting on it now, I could have stated a sentence in a question form and then answered it in my presentation.
  Since I failed on asking the questions, I most certainly did not answer them in the right place. I did however try to avoid any questions being presented from the viewer. I tried to make sure the presentation had enough information in it to avoid the viewer from wanting to ask questions in the middle of my presentation.
   Lastly, I did not validate claims until the end. I viewed several presentations where the presenter stated where they got the information from and then went on to explain. I thought this was something I could of done in the course of my presentation. I did acknowledge my sources at the end, but a better way would have been to incorporate them into the presentation.
   One of my greatest learnings was how to place audio into the powerpoint. I honestly did not realize how easy that could be. All that I had to do was click on slide show and then record narration. Timing the video to match the narration was a bit tricky, but well worth it. Having narration in a presentation for business will let the viewer hear how knowledgeable your are about a topic. I believe this also helps the viewer and the presenter connect even when they are miles apart.
