Uhhhh.... MORE presentations??

1. I felt that I did rather well in the aspect of articulating my words correctly. I prevented myself from stammering or mumbling. It was very nerve-wrecking presenting my work in front of the whole class so I felt quite proud of myself for doing so. Furthermore, I did enjoy how my slides were organized, neatly and efficiently. It enabled me to remember what I needed to say much easier. But what I enjoyed most about my project was the statistical data section. I put a lot of work into it, researching for Kuala Lumpur's median age group and population as most sites do not state it and others are simply unreliable.

2. A part of my presentation of which I felt that could be improved was my inability to stop myself from swaying. In front of my colleagues, I danced left and right continuously. It is not the first time this has happened but I know for sure that it can be very distracting to my audience.I could have also brought in reader's notes as I had bits and pieces of information jumbled up sometimes.

3. Honestly, I never knew much about Kuala Lumpur but when I started my research, my mind was blown away by all the information I had just learnt. For example, Kuala Lumpur is apparently one of the biggest importers of tin in Malaysia. Besides that, I found out that a large structure of mountains actually act as natural barriers, shielding Kuala Lumpur from harsh winds coming from the South China Sea. Also, I by listening to my friends' presentations, I have learnt so much more about their own countries. My friend, Gerald, stated that Houston, Texas has one of the most distinguished education systems in the world. I never knew that!!

4. I'd say that my presentation was okay in that I wouldn't say it was absolutely brilliant or extremely bad and boring but instead, would be somewhat in the middle. I put sufficient information into my slides and varied my word choice, allowing the reader to understand the information with greater ease. I think my presentation deserves and A or A minus, at least.

Still wondering what the presentation looks like, here's the link: https://docs.google.com/a/iskl.edu.my/present/edit?id=0AeC7sJOrmTxOZGcya2o3anBfNzQ3dG14dmYzMw&hl=en
