OUGD601. COP3. Dissertation Presentation: Plan & Evaluation.

as part of the module, and as an introduction to our learning we were required to produce a presentation regarding our COP3 direction, question, progression and outcomes. the presentation, occuring on october 17th, should be about 5-10 minutes long and consider the different aspects of the module and its indicative content. i began by planning my presentation in terms of its contents in order to establish the information needing to be included. i then went on to develop the presentation as a pdf. i wanted to present visually so that i would have a greater freedom of verbal explanation and not have to constantly adhere to pre-written text on a screen. i think this choice was beneficial to me and my style of presenting through free speech, and to the audience because heavily text based presentations are not engaging and that contradicts the point of a presentation.

from these plans i then went on to digitally produce my presentation in indesign.

i think the presentation went really well and i spoke clearly and confidently about my proposal, question, progression and aims/intents for the COP module. i feel as though i covered everything i needed to in order to give the audience a full understanding of what it is i was doing and why. i spoke with understanding and with a clear interest in the themes and subjects outlined. at the end of the presentation i gained some feedback on my proposal and some advice for the direction of and research into my dissertation project. 

i think the presentation was really useful both for me to gain an established and written understanding of where i was and what i aimed to do, and for me to have a chance to verbally explain to an audience. i was really appreciative of the audiences feedback and feel as though the whole task was helpful.
