Reflection on Oral Presentation

The week of oral presentation could be said to be one of my busiest week of the semester as I have 3 other presentations and a project submission happening on the same week.

Overall, I believe that my oral presentation was good but of course, there are some improvements which I can work on to further improve on the preparation and execution of the presentation.

I believe what I have done well was to prepare my slides in advance such that I have a clear understanding and direction on how I would conduct my presentation. The flow of the presentation was also structured intentionally to resemble to that of the proposal such that anybody who has read the final project proposal could associate with the information easily.

Placement and use of visuals on slides was something which I believe was effective because visuals are able to direct important information to the points which i wanted to bring across to the audience. Although my slides were not wordy, I believe with my visuals, my audience would be able to retain the information more effectively.

With regards to delivery, I believe I have done well in engagement as I maintained sufficient eye contact with "Ms Lim" and share the eye contact with the rest of the class too. Furthermore, I attempted to deliver information about the benefits, challenges, feasibility of our Scheme in an intuitive flow such that the audience is able to relate and understand the information which was being presented to them.

As to preparation of the presentation, I believe I could have done better. Although the slides require minimal work, I believe putting in more effort may have resulted in a more "tailored" slides for "Ms Lim". Additionally, the script for the presentation was done a day before the presentation. What could have been done would be to prepare the slides and the script once the project proposal is finalized so that in case of a busy week ahead like what happened, I have sufficient to prepare a better presentation.
