Writing practice: Revising a presentation
37
Exchange drafts of your oral presentation notes with a classmate. As you give feedback to each other, consider the following questions:
- Is the presentation strategically planned with purpose, audience, and context in mind?
- Is the structure easy to follow? Is the opening hook engaging? Do the signposts guide listeners?
- If your partner has a script rather than notes, is the presentation written for the ear, in a lively style, with straightforward sentences?
- Is the speaker planning visuals that have specific purposes?
Use the space below to reflect on your discussion with your classmate and to plan three changes you will make as you revise your presentation.
