Presentations
Wednesday 26th Dec., 2012, T003, 1420-1700
Content: all students had prepared slides which were relevant & fulfilled
their tasks. Farah’s could have been better prepared re. accuracy of text.
Attitude & body language:
Asaad & Abdulla were very good. Ali Ahmed & Farah were
both loud & confident; Hamoud was a little
tentative to start with, but grew in confidence & persevered well.
Visual aids/PP
slides: Abdulla’s were
colourful, attractive & error-free, as were Hamoud’s. Ali Ahmed’s were
similar, for the most part, with only a couple of minor errors. There was too
much text on all of Asaad’s slides; to his credit, he didn’t read mechanically
from this text; he was fluent & knowledgeable, as befits his position with
ADCB, but there was, I feel, too much technical information displayed for the audience
to assimilate quickly enough. Farah’s 2nd slide had too much text
& wasn’t displayed long enough for us to comprehend. The text on the other
slides had not been properly checked & corrected prior to presentation;
there were, therefore, spelling/grammatical errors on every slide which had text,
e.g. ‘our brake in Riyadh’ & the final slide ‘thank you for listing’.
Fielding questions: all students coped adequately. Asaad was particularly fluent in his
responses.
Language/communicative
competence: Asaad
excellent; Abdulla & Farah very good; Ali Ahmed & Hamoud good.
