On Thursday (25th October) of Week 5, each of you will give a super
mini-presentation on the theme of urbanisation, that is, cities.
Your presentation will comprise of what you found out while investigating ONE of the following:
- a radio programme from www.bbc.co.uk/radio4
- a newspaper article from a broadsheet newspaper, such as The Guardian www.guardian.co.uk, The Independent www.independent.co.uk or The Telegraph www.telegraph.co.uk.
Please bear in mind that the first two newspapers tend to be more
left-wing while the latter generally reflects conservative views.
- a lecture from www.ted.com
Make
notes while you read/listen and you may need to read/listen 3 or 4
times until you really get the main points that you will use to describe
in your presentation.
Your aim is to inform your
audience so make sure you get your points across clearly in order
that everyone can understand what you are saying and, ultimately, see
why it's interesting!
You have 2 minutes exactly; no
more, no less, so it would be a great idea to practice the timing of
your talk before you present.
You are allowed a few
notes but ideally you will be speaking freely. It shouldn't be a
learned speech but a chance to speak 'on your feet' about what you have
learned.
