So, every term there are good and there bad things. And then, there are oral presentations. They are like... Like... Work. Since we're in Spain (oh no, I'm giving details about myself! Oh well, now that I come to think of it, probably the only personal thing about I haven't revealed yet in this blog is that my name is Satoshi Yagami... Whoops), maybe I should explain the concept of work. Put simply, you (normally) hate doing it but you're proud and reliefed after finishing. Apart from that, you noticed the topic-related Spain gag? You noticed? No? Now you do.
Since every term there's one of them, I used to call them, inspired from movie titles, "Self evaluation of my oral presentation I/II". But now, it was not my presentation, it was OUR presentation. And that's not the same thing. Speaking in terms of a series, it's like a spin-off to the presentation saga.
Having said that, you're ready to read my final homewritten blog post this year!
After so many presentations, I think I have no more problems left with that. I don't read too much, I look almost all the time to the audience and I use little gestures once in a while. 10 out of 10
Presentation & structure (10%):
I think it was structured clearly, although we had a very time to carve out the different subtopics of the big and wide bastard called education. Sorry for the not-really-four-letters-word, but it's actually a combination of several figures of speech. Notice that this swearword and "education" are actually two completely opposed concepts, considering the little wordplay as eduaction can be applied on various meanings.
Oh right, I had to evaluate something.
Well, a part from what I said, the prezi was a bit messy, some of the subtopic-circles can't be seen well or a little bad placed. That's the problem of finishing a prezi at late night... 7,5 out of 10
Content (40%):
If you have a problem with the content of this presentation, then you have a problem with me. Because it was very hard to define our topic, choose the aspects we wanted to talk about, sum them up and picking up the most interesting and important parts... And this stress multiplied by three. Besides that we had different opinions at some points, so a little compounding was necessary. But in the end, at least in my opinion, we had great stuff to talk about and since it's a topic quite close to us and our audience, we hit the interest of the people. So, there's no complaining allowed. 40 out of 40
Vocabulary and grammar (20%):
As for my part of the presentation, I tried to use (at least a little) sophisticated vocabulary and grammar structures without damaging the easy understanding of the content. Katia and Laila also helped me out a little and added and edited some sentences. I'd say we all did a quite gob here. But this stupid "many motivation" is freaking me out. You've probably noticed. If not, well, there's the video evidence above. 17,5 out of 20
Pronunciation & intonation (20%):
I had to look up like 50 variants of the word "motivation" and check out their pronunciation. If they're problems here, nobody informed me about them. Well, I had a tiny blooper, that's all.
As for the intonation and my speech in general...
I really talked a lot, didn't I? At least I got utterly bored listening to myself such a long time when I was watching this video... But maybe it's because I already know the topic and the content. And probably because I hate listening to myself or seeing myself in videos. Especially listening. My laughter. I can't stand it.
And well, since it was a work in a group, I didn't have a lot of freedom to make it a typical "Crazy German" presentation. And this constrained me a little. I think that's the reason why I couldn't present the topic in a more dynamic or original or entertaining way. 12,5 out of 20
Final mark (100%): 10+7,5+40+17,5+12,5 = 87,5 -> That's a 8,75 then
What can I improve? Basically, be less lazy and do the work in time.
To conclude the homewritten posts this year, I'd like to point out that the date shown above these posts is not the correct one. Actually, right now it's the 2nd of June at 11.59 PM. Theory of relativity and stuff like that, you know. Oh, I've got one minute left! I'm in a hurry! Bye, see you next year!
