Although we did all those demonstrative speeches in class, I still think that looking at other people’s ways of explaining things is really intriguing. Although I do have to agree with Morgan in the fact that the video she posted was a little confusing. She seemed like she was messing up a lot of things she was try to get across. But the speaker was able to explain what she wanted to and on top of this, she also made the point of the creation of this “solar oven” important to those watching the video.
However, like Morgan noticed as well, there were some common problems in the speech. For one thing, there was a definite change in probs mid-speech, which made the viewing a little confusing. Also, the presenter had an issue in repeating the steps. This was definitely a problem due to the fact that this is actually a complex process that does need a lot of practice and understanding to do. I also noticed that the author also had really bad transitions in her speech. Although this is not that big of an issue in the speech itself, it does take distract us from the main purpose of the speech and make it harder to understand the point of what she is saying.
All in all, I do have to agree with Morgan that this project definitely needed some more work on it. Although there were some strong points in her overall performance, there were also an excessive amount of low points that could be altered to make the presentation run smoother. Then again, the presenter did look young, so I think she will have plenty of time to tone her skills before college comes around.
