How I organize my working process

I think the most important thing is to take some time to read the article or text you want to work with.

Write down questions and ideas you get while reading and translate the words you don’t know. Think about what might be interesting for the others and do some research on the themes you want to know more about.

Then you can start to sum up your results and make your ppt. Work on your presentation so that your able to meet the demands for a good presentation.

Criteria for a good presentation

  • sum up the main facts
  • speak slowly and freely
  • use a good design
  • don’t use unknown words
  • use formal language
  • keep eye-contact to the audience
  • use some pictures, but not too much ;)
  • some breaks might be good, the audience can ask questions
  • to keep the interest of the audience, you can ask some questions so that you can be shure that they are still listening :)
