Presentation考试¶

What is the Presentation exam in the UK? How to do a Presentation?

In domestic universities and high schools, there is usually no concept of "Presentation." However, in foreign countries, almost all schools have individual or group presentations. Presentations can be part of regular assignments or graded exams. Failing a presentation can result in a failed grade, requiring a redo, and the number of presentations in each semester can be quite high.

To be honest, it's not easy to accurately translate "Presentation" into Chinese with a single word. It can be referred to as a speech, a demonstration, or a summary report to the teacher.

So, for students who are going abroad for the first time from China, they may not understand what a presentation is and how to do it to achieve a high score.

For example, friends who are fond of the Apple brand may be familiar with Apple's annual product launches, where Steve Jobs used to give thematic speeches on stage, which can be considered as presentations.

In school, teachers assign presentations on relevant topics, which can be individual or group presentations. Individual presentations are similar to what Steve Jobs used to do, where one person stands on stage and delivers a speech or demonstration. Group presentations involve members of a group taking turns to present, with each member contributing to the content in a coordinated manner. On the other hand, individual presentations are done solely by one person.

In reality, students attending classes in the UK will also notice that teachers mostly use PowerPoint (PPT) during lectures, which is also considered a form of presentation.

Presentation Format:

Presentations are delivered using PPT, which stands for PowerPoint, a Microsoft office software specifically designed for creating slide presentations. Unless there are special circumstances, presentations are typically done using PowerPoint slides. The content on the slides should be concise, focused, and have minimal text.

During the presentation, you need to stand in front of the audience, facing them while occasionally referring to the slides to guide the audience. Alternatively, instead of delivering the presentation in front of the teacher or audience, you can record a video and submit it to the teacher. However, recording a video presentation is usually done when specifically requested by the teacher.

Presentation Structure:

Although PPT is used, the structure of the content is akin to writing a mini essay. You need to focus on a central theme, present an academic paper, and use charts, numbers, and key points on the slides. You will then provide an explanation and elaboration during the presentation.

This means that you need to write the content first before creating the PowerPoint slides, which facilitates the process.

Introduction:

Start with an opening statement, introducing yourself, your team members (if applicable), and what you will be talking about, along with the approach and purpose of the presentation.

Background:

Provide a background introduction based on the theme given by the teacher.

Main Body:

Focus on presenting the content you have written around the given theme, including key points, significance, drawbacks, and other relevant aspects.

Conclusion:

Summarize the content presented, linking it to the previous sections. Avoid introducing new viewpoints or ideas. If providing suggestions, refer back to the previously mentioned content.

Questions:

Ask the audience if they have any questions. If there are questions, answer them by briefly restating the question to clarify your understanding, and then respond accordingly. If there are no questions, thank everyone and conclude the presentation.
