Presentation - general information

• You present in English 
• You use a presenting program during your presentation (Powerpoint, Prezi, Google presentations, etc.) 
• You are allowed to use key cards during your presentation (no complete texts, no Ipad or mobile phones) 

Your presentation

• No complete sentences in presentation, only key words
• Use pictures/photos to clarify your points 
• Include at least the following slides: 

1. title slide (including your subject, names, class) 

2. content slide (overview of your presentation) 

3. subslides (in which you discuss all information) 

4. 'are there any questions?' slide 

Presentation - the topic 

You are going to present about an English speaking country. 

Rules: 

• Everybody has to choose another subject (first come, first served) 
• It has to be a (partially) English speaking country, thus a country where English is spoken as one of the main languages 

Presentation - the topic

You are going to have to talk about the following points: 

1. Facts: population, size, capital city, flag, religions, etc. 
2. History: most important historical events of the country; include how this country ended up speaking English
3. Tourist hotspots
4. Why would / wouldn't you want to visit this country? Include clear argumentation!
5. Discussion of two cities: give facts, include what (you think) is interesting about these cities, give argumentation why you chose these two cities

Presentation - the process

1. Work on your presentations during class  (2 classes in total) 
2. Presentations will be planned by me
3. Missing your presentation means you have missed a test (SE gemist) 
   --> if you haven't been called in sick, you will get a 1
4. There will be an extra class at the end in which people who might have been ill can do the presentation 

Presentation - the moment

• Remember your posture; don't fidget, don't have your back turned towards your audience; don't put your hands in your pockets or cross your arms
• Make sure you speak clearly, and in an appropriate tempo and volume so that everyone can understand and hear you. 
• Look at your audience. If you find this scary, you can choose to look just above everybody's heads. 
• Don't sit down! And also, make sure you don't keep switching places or stand in front of the screen. 

To do

1. Make pairs 
2. Decide on a topic
3. Divide the work 
4. Start gathering information 
5. Finish lesson 4/Start lesson 5

Often, students start by creating a Powerpoint; however, the first step is always to divide the work and start gathering all the information. 

The final step is creating a Powerpoint and including everything you have found. 

Today we have...

• ... discussed what you should include in your presentation
• ... talked about the topic of your presentation
• ... made pairs and decided upon a topic for your presentation
