English Presentation (1) Wednesday 5-6

While giving the speech, I tried to improve my weakness from the mid-term presentation that it was fill-in-blank speech. So I tried to memorize it and make the speech smooth. The PPT was also simple and easy to understand. I made an eye-contact with audiences to deliver the speech correctly and to make them understand.

2. How well did the audience get to know the speech subject?

Well, some of them surprised when they saw the result of the survey. They are all familliar with my speech subject. So they understood easily and quickly.

3. Did the speech reflect adequate preparation?
I used Powerpoint to show the result of the survey but I was afraid that it might be boring so I made it by putting some picture, change color of the letters, etc. Also, I tried not to use the memos while doing the presentation and give an eye-contact too.

4. Did the speaker talk clearly and audibly?
I spoke clear and slow enough that audiences could follow and hear my speech, in my opinion. At first, I did it so fast and it caused that the audiences couldn't follow me. So I slow down a bit and spoke audibly.

5. Did the speech have a definite opening, body, and conclusion?

Yes. My speech begins with few warm-up questions to the audiences about drinking. Then, I continued with the result of the survey. Lastly, I concluded by giving them a warning that it is harmful for our health if we drink too much.

6. Please comment on the speaker's use of notes/eye contact.
I honestly had looked at my notes sometimes. However, I did better that the mid-term presentation. I also tried to make many eye-contact with the audiences.

7. What could the speaker have done differently that would have improved the speech?

I should collect more opinions from other students and other ages to make my survey reliable.

8. What did you like about the presentation?
While I was doing my survey, it was interesting and all the repliers were interested in this topic too. Since it was a topic that everyone is interested, the presentation wasn't boring at all, in my opinion.

Speaking Feedback
Date: 2016-06-06

Speaker: Kim Jiwon (201500824)
Evaluator: Kim Jiwon (201500824)
Title: Slang Use of 20's

1. What strong points does the speaker have?
The speech was recorded without a sript ; I referred to a memo only for the percentage number of the survey. Also I tried to improve my weakness from the mid-term presentation: speed of speech. I waited enough for the anweres of the audieneces to le them keep focusing on my speech and for the whole speech. Also, I tried to slow down the speed and deliver what I say as clearly as possible.

2. How well did the audience get to know the speech subject?
I guess most of them got to know well about the speech subject. This was one of the focuses I concentrated on when preparing the presentation and that is why I chose the subject to figure out the habit of twenties in specific, not young generation in general. I also mentioned that I also targetted the 40's as a comparative group of 20's. Plus, I began my speech asking the audience about their own speech habit and gave them the definition of 'slang' to make it clear. I also asked if they had any quesions about my subject with a review of the whole survey results and a conclusion at the end of the speech.

3. Did the speech reflect adequate preparation?
I tried hard to make the ppt file as clear as possible because it can be quite hard or boring to see the statistics when it is not neat enough. Therefore, I put each question in each slide and emphasize the parts I wanted to show them. I also memorized all the script to make eye contacts a lot and used microphone to make sure that everyone can get what I was saying.

4. Did the speaker talk clearly and audibly?
To be honest, the hardest part for me when I was giving a speech was controling my speed of speech. I tend to speak fast when I have conversations with people, but for presentation, for everyone to get what I am saying, I had to slow down my speech a little bit. Unless, the audience could feel like I am so nervous that I want to end my presentation quickly, so I tried to relax and have a lot of eye contacts to make sure that they are clear with what I am saying.

I5. Did the speech have a definite opening, body, and conclusion?
Yes. I began with an opening asking a warm-up question for the audience and gave the definition of 'slang', which was my subject of speech. For body parts, I included each questions, answers and interpretation of the survey I have done. Finally, in conclusion, I reviewed the results of the survey and suggested what we shoud be careful about when using slang.

6. Please comment on the speaker's use of notes/eye contact.
I had a note for only for the percentage number of the survey and it was only once. Also, I tried to make as many eye-contacts as possible.

7. What could the speaker have done differently that would have improved the speech?
Since it is a presentation about survey, I should collect more answers to make sure that my survey is reliable.

8. What did you like about the presentation?
I liked that it was about the twenties since both the speaker and the audience are all in their twenties and I think this made the audience be interested about the presentation. Plus, I liked that it had a clear conclusion; it did not end with showing the results but contained a suggestion related with generation gap.
