Below are the two presentations that Alma took you through (in Evan's History class and my class this morning.) If you haven't already filled in your ATHENS account details, please go to the Library on the second floor as soon as you can. Believe me, there is a surfeit of places to find information and Alma has made things nice and straightforward for you. I hope you enjoyed the session this morning and feel the sites will be of use to you in your studies at SCE and beyond.

How to structure your PP slides - in theory and in practice
Please use the following templates when you come to put your PowerPoint slides together. It is important that you consider the importance of structuring for all things communication. The presentation is no different.

Selling Yourself - a brief overview
Today we looked at some of the 'Selling Yourself' television programme which concerned five candidates vying for their dream job (in this case, advertising.)
We watched Mohammed, Claire, Alex, Mili and Sarah present information about themselves, reflect on their performances, work in small groups and pitch their ideas in the form of an individual presentation.
We looked at the positive and the negative aspects of each presenter and your input was very helpful.
This will set us up nicely for tomorrow's class on effective and ineffective presentation techniques.
See you then,
Mark

Information on my Roman (working) Holiday

If you click on the link above you will see the kind of things that we discussed in Rome. The theme was Sustainable Solutions (SusSol) and I was so impressed with the amount of meaningful project work being done in other institutes. I found it a particularly illuminating meeting and despite coming home with a really sore throat, it was well worth attending.
