3. Introduction to Oral Presentations

• Worth 15% of your final grade
• Why? In the US, you have to do presentations ALL the time. 
• Write about your public speaking experiences here. Anonymous of course. :D
• Warm up- Compare these two rhetorical analyses. One is of a commercial and one is of an article. Find two differences and two similarities. 
• Now look at this Prezi. What does it do well? What does it do wrong? (there are no right or wrong answers here)
• Using this outline as a guide, unscramble the steps of Oral Presentation with the handout I will give you.

4. Visual Aids- Content
First, let's compare this two youtube videos. First one and then the second one. Use a handout I will give you to analyze. 
Now, let's watch this powerpoint. Use another handout to fill out the answers.

Advice for picking a commercial:

• Should be in English.
• 30 seconds to 1 minute and 30 seconds long.
• Video quality should be good.
• Should have enough for you to analyze. 
• Everyone must do a different commercial.
