Reflection on my Oral presentation


My team and I had the longest time for the preparation of the presentation slides as we were the last team to present. The presentation slides were relatively easy to prepare as we are only required to put pictures in our slides. For me, the difficult part about the preparation of the slides would be trying to link one another slides together and making the information of our slides relevant to our proposal.

I felt that I did quite well for my presentation as I think I was able to bring across my idea to the targeted audience and projected my voice well. A few areas that I can improve on would be reducing the use of filler words and gathering my thoughts first before speaking. I noticed that I would pause once in a while to think of what I want to say next. I believe that with more rehearsals, I could improve on this aspect.


I am glad that we were allowed to use slides for our presentation. This tool allowed me to remind myself on what I have to say next. Also, I felt that the video in my presentation would have more impact if the video showed the Minister of Transport talking about bicycle sharing scheme himself. The use of the wireless presenter greatly help in our presentation as we are able to change the slides at our command and also point to important information on the slides with the laser pointer.
