Any idea on how we should prepare for presentations?

I've heard from seniors that there are some crazy presentation groups who spoil market...

What do they do?

Don't be the first group to present! haha.. Unless you are going all out to impress. If you queue your group to be the last few, you can roughly know the standard and follow them =p Whistle Whistle

From my experience of presenting, i would strongly reccomend u be the first.

Because everyone is scared of being the first and the tutor will in most case be more forgiving.

Also, you will be the one who set the standard.


But if all the teams are presenting on the same day then be the first few. I mean, consider the grader position. He will be most alert initially.


Lastly, Wat you need is confidence and energy. This is not something everyone is born with but something that everyone can train out to have.


If you got problem exuding the energy and confidence, take a speech from some of the great speakers like John F kenndy, Obama, Martin King Luthur and mimic them.

Make sure u mimic their body language, tonality, volume and aura correctly.

Get a friend to help you. If your able to do this and bring this confidence and energy to ur presentation, you will be one of the top speaker in ur class.


Learn from the best.

I think it's usually those marketing modules that are more fun.

1) like giving out freebies to the entire class

2) decorating the entire class room to set the atmosphere

3) having some form of role-play

4) Just doing something different or out of the blue?

5) getting sponsors.. haha..

I think as long as you're sure of what you'[re saying, and you're not trying to smoke all the way it should be ok. Prepare beforehand your script, try not to read from notes, and anticipate and prepare for questions of course. And when answering, always bear the context of the question in mind and don't answer with something that's not in context, it'll only make you look like you have no idea what you're talking about and that you're trying to smoke your way through.

Anyway, haha as long as you prepare and deliver it with good energy it should be alright!
