Pecha Kucha: Possibilities

Pecha Kucha: Possibilities

     I watched the presentation on possibilities and how they can affect our lives. The presenter did a very good job of relating her experiences to the topic she is talking about. Her tone and pace was slow and easy to understand. I loved how she showed the progression of her painting throughout the presentation. Her painting's step-by-step progression and development showed how she changed as a person throughout her experiences and choosing what path to take for her future.

     I think she really needs to work on getting her main ideas across with more detail and less "umm" and "like" words. There were also points in her presentation that she laughed. That was very distracting for me as an audience because I want to know more about the topic. I don't want to take time and pause for her to laugh. I think that if she had rehearsed it a little bit more, it would have flowed better.

    I think that the Pecha Kucha form of presenting is very upbeat and interesting. It keeps your audience involved and focused. I also allows them to retain more information because they are more focused on what you have to say and they aren't trying to read a paragraph off of a slide. I think this will be a great project for all of us, however, I'm a little worried about the timing and getting my point across. I think ten slides is a good amount for a presentation, as long as I can get the main points of my information across in 20 seconds for each slide.
