And the BEST PRESENTER is..... K28

SO, you've watched a whole load of clips on presentations and of presentations. Who would you say is the best presenter?
Randy Paunsch?
Ed Tate?
Doug Jeffrys?
Dick Hardt?
TJ Walker?
Or Microsoft dude? (Should he even be on the list?)

So what have you learnt from all you've watched? In groups, come up with your steps to being an EFFECTIVE PRESENTER using P.R.E.S.E.N.T. Is it the same as your first draft? If it's different, explain the changes made. If it's the same, explain why you've not made any changes.

Today at first when teacher said that we are going to the theatre room i was really excited..I thought we were going 2 watch movie..
Then the light in the theatre turned off n TJ Walker popped into the scrin..
yes i was a bit disappointed but tj walker manage to stunt me..
i really wish i juz can speak like him..
The dying guy was definately great..In the end of his speech i can feel my eyes watery..his speech was definately effective..
i really like the lady in the end..she was hilarious..i was laughing off my seat..her confident is really something 2 admire 4..
so who do i think is the best presenter?

yeay i know it's a wishful thinking but impossible is really nothing cause whether i think i can or i can't i'm right..

Today,we were ushered into a mini theatre which has seatings similar to that in an air-plane cabin.

Feasting our eyes on numerous hillarious movie clips for more than an hour wre more than enough to last a day's laugh.

With sound advice from TJ Walker & Doug Jeffrys on the Do's & Don'ts During Presentations,I definitely picked up few tricks up my sleeves.
To be an effective presenter,we definitely need some skills.


As for the special guest invited to the famous Oprah Winfrey Show,Randy Paunsch,I dare say that he has created such an impact on all his audience,especially me,in delivering his presentation.He showed such positive attitude towards handling sickness & death.The slideshows were touching.So as the saying goes,a picture paints a thousand words.To Randy Paunsch,I salute you.

However,there were some B-O-R-I-N-G clips shown to us on purposely.Sometimes we tend to present in a way like Dick Hardt & the Microsoft dude does.Just like Pn Jumani said on our 2nd lesson------------->good slides may not neccessarily make a good presenter,& vice-versa.This is what happened to Dick Hardt today.Not to mention that presenting in monotone barely switches your audience to sleeping mode.

Everything we watched & learned today shall be put to test on OUR OWN presentation in due time.

we've been asked to go to a theatre room..thot we might wana watch muvie.. but then again... presentation slides... I HATE PUBLIC SPEAKIN song... bla..blaa..kind a borin to watch those clips again n again...yeah..but we stil need 2 improve our ways of speakin..
sum of us took a nap...sum laughin..talkin....but..ol of us focused on this unique guy...RANDY PAUNSCH..he is full of ethusiasm..strong will to live tho he stil got few months to live (not sure if he's stil alive)..
he stil giv talks to ppl...encourage ppl to live a hapy life..his slides were the most touchin n lovely...pack wit pics n moments..his audiences are his children...
i cud see his eyes..telling us he really love n care for his children..
his talks, confidence, gestures n a lovely heart makes me realised...
IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A PERFECT PERSON AS LONG AS U HV POSITIVE THINKIN IN EVERYTHG..
gud slides doesn't mean a person can be a perfect presenter..
but he showed us sumtin tat is beyond our imaginary...
thank u RANDY...n GOD BLES u...

Today we all learnt about the best presenter.
firtsly, i think if we to do the presentation, the important we must to do is preparation. the subject must clearly.second, physical skill.the body language, eye contact, facial expressions and most important in every presenter is don't nervous.

the best presenter is TJ Walker.

i like randy paunsch... why???
because of his spirit of leaving eventhough he is gonna die soon..
i first know him because of his book title THE LAST LECTURE. for the first time i saw that book at popular, i promise to myself that 1 day i will gonna have that book.
then, last 2 weeks, i bought it at POPULAR MEGAMALL, KUANTAN..
i like him for his spirit and positiveness in his.. that really inspired me that he is someone that really tough in facing the reality of life...
he has show me that there is no matter when we gonna die..just realize that sooner or later, we will experienced the same as him..
i was really sad when im thinking about his three children,logan, chloe and dylan. and also his wife, jai..ive been thinking about their life after randy passed away..
hurm, his steady and how he manage to be comfortable in stage tell me that its how we think about something that matter..
one day, sooner or later i wanna be one of the presenter that comfortable in stage instead of being a presenter which can attract audience. i need practices, so here we go...the way is just in front of me, it just i wanna take the chances or not..

Assalamualaikum....

The Best Presenter......should be me..mybe in a few years from now..

Ok...this is based from what i've been watching for some of the best presenter...n i think TJ Walker is the person...

The best presenter should have something nice and brilliant such as good to attract audience,good voice tone and the important thing is confidence....

Yeah....I agree if were not really good in language,we still have the opportunity to present well..People judge someone by their speech...how they delivered their speech...

So don't ever care about the surrounding..just take care about the audience....n just be ourselves....

hi...

for me,the best presenter is TJ Walker..
i like he way he teach to be the best presenter..
we must have self confidence,eye contact with the audience and dont speak monotones because the audience will bored with the presentation..

P.R.E.S.E.N.T is not the same as our first draft..but we not change them at all..only certain word we change..it is because,after we watch the video,we know what we should do to be the best presenter..

thanx..

I remember before i get into this class, i went to toilet first..
but after that, i found out that they were all disappeared!!

I start getting nervous but fortunately, my friend told me they had gone to theatre room..
But i felt quite weird~
I wonder we are going to watch movie..

Then, i get in and noticed that TJ Walker talked on the skrin..
I found out, he is a funny guy..
He talked in such a way that can grab my attention!

However, i prefer Randy Paunsch!
He showed me his positive attitude of facing his sickness..
He is such a brave and tough people!
I think i should make him as my role model! Because his speech really touch my heart!!
T_T..

But there are also few boring clips~~ One of the examples is Microsoft dude!
He talked in such a dull way and i nearly cannot understand what is he talking about!
Then, you know what would happened?
Of course i was getting into sleep!

It's a really an impressive lesson...No matter judge from the teaching materials or the environment of mini theatre is excellent!

Although it's about an hours class but time seem passed very fast,cause i am enjoy myself in every single clips that were shown.

There are good model presenters and vice versa.Among all of those presenter i think Randy pausch impressed me the most.I was really touch and close to tear after watching his talk.

I am really amazed by his influential talk.We can felt his sincerity and enthusiasm during his talk.His broke the perception of speech or talk will bored a person to tears.I think there is no one wont be inspired after his presentation.

Beside of Randy,TJ walker also the other speaker that i like.He has pointed out some "big no no" mistake during presentation and also the correct ways suppose to be.I think it will make a big difference on our presentation if we follow all the tips that given.

If possible i wish to have all the clips to watch over and over again...:)

Thanks for everythings!!!

assalamualaikum

For me the best presenter is ‘last lecturer’ .For me he has eye contact and can take attention form audience. He also not present base on his slide hundred percent.

He also did not feel nervous to present to audience. Base on his present I can said that he sincere to share his story to audience. He also not became stiff but he make a movement but not obvious. And he also did not fear to present his slide even her slide just about his family.He also get a good point or content and exactly his present can his audience touching and happy with it. He also good in control eye contact with audience and to see his slide. He has good explanation about opening.

In my opinion the worst presenter is ‘Microsoft’ this is because he lost his eye contact with audience and also his presentation quite boring. His voice also not clear and became mumble itself.

For me, as audience did not understand what that he was talking about. I can see this presenter quite nervous. His presentation also get worse because of he just click on his slide with any explanation and just reading from the slide only. He also stiff and did not do any movement and I think his finger just the only do a little movement. He also lost on body language.
