1 English Construct and deliver an oral presentation Achievement Standard 90725 Due: Week 10

2 What is this about? 4 Credits Internal Assessment This achievement standard requires construction and delivery of an oral presentation using a range of appropriate presentation techniques. You will create and present a seminar on a topic which arises from the texts we have studied this year. The intention is that the presentation is primarily oral and employs verbal and visual communication techniques to enhance the presentation.

3 Achievement Criteria AchievementAchievement with Merit Achievement with Excellence  Construct and deliver a presentation that communicates with an audience.  Construct and deliver a presentation that communicates effectively with an audience.  Construct and deliver an effective presentation that convinces and/or challenges an audience.  Develop and support idea(s).  Develop and support detailed idea(s).  Develop and support detailed idea(s), showing insight and/or originality.  Use a range of appropriate presentation techniques for a specific audience and purpose.  Combine a range of appropriate presentation techniques for a specific audience and purpose.  Integrate a range of appropriate presentation techniques for a specific audience and purpose.

4 Appropriate presentation techniques Must be used and MAY include: –body language: stance, gesture, facial expression –variation in voice: tone, volume, pace, stress –static image such as a poster, visual display material, OHTs –moving/electronic image such as a video, PowerPoint display, webpage, website –dramatic presentation such as a role play, performance of a poem, or scene from a play –props, costume, demonstration material/items.

5 Audience and purpose audience implies a number of people such as a class or a group of peers. The delivery situation should be formal and the length of the presentation appropriate to the purpose and sufficient to show evidence of meeting the grade criteria.

6 Construct means that a student develops a structured presentation, which might explore a variety of ideas, points of view, findings, or dramatic aspects.

7 So how I do I do this? In this activity you will: construct and deliver a presentation on a language topic integrate a range of oral and visual language techniques. Your presentation will be structured and your delivery techniques carefully planned. You could consider including oral and visual language techniques such as dramatisations and group or whole class activities. If group or class activities are included they are expected to form some part but not to dominate the presentation and to be efficiently facilitated.

8 Getting it together You may use audio / visual resources as required. Give careful thought as to how an overhead projector, whiteboard, Powerpoint presentation, video or DVD, posters, photocopied resources or other items could be integrated to make your presentation more effective. As you construct your presentation check with your teacher that the techniques and resources you plan to use in various parts of your presentation are suitable and appropriate for your purpose.

9 Getting it together You should also focus on developing effective delivery techniques such as stance and gesture as well as variation in voice including, tone, volume, pace and stress. You will use homework and class time to prepare your presentation. You will deliver your presentation in class. Your presentation will be at least six minutes long or probably longer if group work is included.

10 Task 1: Planning the structure of your presentation In consultation with your teacher select a literature topic or issue which interests you. The topic or issue might be developed from an initial class study. If may be possible to base the presentation on other literature topics, but you should gain your teacher’s approval first. For example: following a whole class study of a literature topic, students chose aspects of the topic that interests them. Some of the topics they explored were: How are men and women portrayed in this text? Why are children and women powerless ? How are New Zealand and New Zealanders portrayed in the text? How are literary or film techniques used to show different themes? How have techniques for showing men’s and women’s roles changed over time? Why are CGI techniques used in film? After collecting and analysing several samples, follow the steps from task 2 onwards to construct your presentation.

11 Planning Template Using this layout, develop a planning template for your presentation. 1.What is your topic? Eg How is… What is … (a) Now you need to break your seminar into four sections. Ask some important what and why questions, that is questions that will help you draw some conclusions about the literary work. I.- II.- III.- IV.- Remember you are educating /teaching the class on an aspect of the literature.

12 Developing a Structure 2. Turn your questions into points and make notes under each using quotes from the text and points gained from research. First main point_________________________________________ Evidence______________________________________________ Comment_____________________________________________ Do FOUR of these points.

13 Main ideas/questionVerbal ( key words)Visual (images) Point 1 Point 2 Point 3 Point 4 Planning

14 Structure Use the introduction, body,conclusion structure. Think about how you can integrate your material with the delivery techniques required for a seminar. Introduction: think about how you can introduce your points What is your research objective or the purpose of your language investigation? Topic or issue / the focus of your presentation: Methods? An outline? Role play? Question and answer?

15 Body What will be your main points? What evidence and examples will you add to support your points? How will you link the various points together in your presentation to draw conclusions and make judgements? What presentation techniques would suit your seminar? Charts? Maps? OHTS? Props? Handouts?

16 Conclusion Summary of findings / final observations/ closure: What points will you make in summary? Summarise your findings and leave your audience with a challenge. How? There are important decisions for you to make about how you will present your key ideas so that you achieve the standard. Your presentation is more than a formal speech, although there will be formal speaking elements in your presentation.

17 Task 2: Engaging your audience The purpose of this presentation is to engage your audience. There are important decisions for you to make about how you will present your key ideas so that you achieve the standard. Your presentation is more than a formal speech, although there will be formal speaking elements in your presentation. As you work with your material to prepare your presentation, consider a range of appropriate presentation techniques.

18 Visual Techniques You could use to support your material and help you make your specific points clearly. This could include OHTs, posters, video clips or Data Show images. You will need to practise using resources in order to integrate this material successfully. An OHT, for example, will not be effective if it is merely switched on and left in the background. You should be prepared to point to important points as you speak to your audience and to integrate the resource into your presentation.

19 Dramatic Techniques You might choose to incorporate dramatic techniques such as role play or dramatisation. Using a presentation on an aspect of the character relationships in literature as an example, a student might decide to: use the costume used by a particular character explaining why this costume is appropriate to context and audience construct and deliver a speech which is from the text, using key aspects of that character’s style Dramatisation needs rehearsing so that it is integrated into your presentation. It must help your audience understand the techniques used and their intention, not just entertain the audience.

20 Group Techniques You could consider group techniques as well. For example you might choose to involve your audience in a ‘question and answer’ situation. In order for this to be effective it will require careful preparation. You could present your audience with some brief activity (for example, a resource featuring language techniques) and lead a ‘question and answer session’ based on that material. Another possibility is for you to set some kind of group exercise and then lead the group discussion or report back that arises from this work. This will take careful preparation and practice!

21 Task 3: Developing ideas and techniques together Developing ideas is one key aspect of your presentation. Communicating these ideas effectively with your audience through appropriate delivery and presentation techniques is the other essential component. Develop both your ideas and techniques together as you prepare your presentation in detail.

22 Developing ideas and techniques together In task 1 you developed a plan of the main points in your presentation. Expand those main points into a detailed outline. As you prepare the content of your presentation in more detail, make notes about the techniques you will integrate at various stages. Develop a draft of your presentation leaving space to write in delivery techniques. Look at the following section from a detailed outline. Develop your outline in the same way. As you record your headings, key points and examples, list the techniques you plan to use.

23 Developing ideas and techniques together Try not to write out the information in full. Use a series of headings and key points so that when you deliver your presentation you will talk to your main ideas rather than read a pre-prepared text. This will help you to develop a degree of spontaneity and effective contact with your audience which will be lost if you have the full text in front of you and revert to reading. Rehearsal is essential in order to present your ideas with confidence and use delivery techniques in a sustained way. You will focus on rehearsal in task 4.

24 Task 4: Rehearsal and final delivery You must rehearse your presentation: to achieve the necessary degree of familiarity with your material. to ensure that you integrate delivery techniques effectively. You might focus your rehearsal on certain sections: eg delivering the opening section working on an appropriate tone, pace and volume, while imagining your class is in front of you projecting the overhead transparency(ies) you will use then practising how you will highlight key points displayed for your audience, talking to those points and integrating the resource(s) into your presentation rehearsing your instructions for setting up a group activity: eg dividing the class into groups, noting on the whiteboard the key steps in the group activity to reinforce the instructions you give verbally trying out the paper based resources you have prepared for the class as if you are a student seeing them for the first time. rehearsing the dramatisation which you are using to demonstrate certain language techniques.

25 Rehearsal is important! Rehearse your presentation with a partner or in a small group so that other students can give you feedback. They could use the checklist on page 9 as a starting point and customise it to include other techniques you are using. As well as giving you valuable feedback, this process will help other students consider how techniques can be effectively incorporated into their own presentations.

26 Rehearsal is really important!! Look at selected videoed exemplars. Focusing on the delivery techniques used, discuss these techniques with your teacher and consider techniques which could be suitable for your presentation. You may not repeat content material from the videoed exemplars. Deliver your presentation to the class. GOOD LUCK!!
