Capstone Blog post #7 – Presenting!!

The presentation was the most stressful part.

Early on, I was having trouble with how long it was. So I got the least practice because we didn’t know how long. So no good.

Then, we made the flashcards. Those worked. Actually something not that stressful. It was pretty simple. We would bold key words and make the script into a format that worked for cutting into the cards. Simple.

On the day…

Mr.Casal added the presentation before I made the final edits and didn’t update so I stumbled a lot. However, it went well and I got way too many compliments in my opinion. For next time, I would ask to see if it is updated before you went on stage.

Capstone blog post #6 – Final Product

Now. The presentation and the final product. What all this was for. The most important thing in the process. And it’s just around the corner.

 

First and foremost, we had to do the blog post. The 5th (3rd in my case) blog post, in fact. This was done for 3 reasons. 1: so people can get a gist of the presentation. 2: so that you don’t have to say all the information out loud. 3: the most important, to base your script of off. So after the blog, the first thing I went off to do was make my script. I made tweaks and took out stuff to the/from the content. It didn’t take that long, really. It went from 12 (yes, twelve) pages to 9. This made me really proud that I could take out that much. The script was ready. Well, not really. I kept cutting out stuff and it ended as 4.

 

The next big part is the visuals. Seems easy. A google slide with good pictures. Well, for me, YOU’RE WRONG. Really wrong. First things first, at first, I didn’t download a single picture. And I didn’t know it had to be large and high quality. And I didn’t know about the copyright. So I had to restart my pictures. Oh, and I didn’t know it couldn’t be a background. Then I had to make tables to help reduce my script. Finally, done. But no. As my script was changing, I had to constantly change and delete and add ones.
