Preparation and Our Presentation

We put all our work and research together today and made a last minute changed to our presentation layout, even though we liked Prezi and found it easier to use and more creative. As a company we decided PowerPoint software worked better for our presentation with having a lot of images and graphs. We wrote down a mini script and order of who was going to say what in our presentation. But i didn't want to learn the script as it would panic me if i forgot. I used the mini script just as a guide so i knew who would be speaking next.

Today we did our presentation. I feel that i worked myself up too much and let my nerves get the better of me. I prefer not to write anything down to prompt me whereas Amy did and she obviously realized that helped her. I feel that i flow better and knew everything i wanted to say from all my research but when we went into the room got nervous and tongue tied. As a company i think we worked well together. We originally made the order in which we spoke and along the lines of who was saying what but we kind of went off track so more preparation in the practicing of the verbal presentation would have helped us and made the presentation flow better. But as a company we worked together and when there was a gap where someone didn't say anything in-between slides someone else picked up and said something else that was relevant. Overall i am pleased with the researched and work we did for this presentation, even thought there was no defiant answer to our question i hope Hurricane films found it useful. Our presentation lasted over 13 mins. We were allowed 15mins but we felt when we got up to present the time goes out the window and the main focus is what we had to present so i am glad our time we finished on was acceptable.
I enjoyed working as a company with Amy and Mia. We all worked equally on the project.

Is There An Answer?

All my research has made me realize there is not a definate answer as to why the older generation do not participate. Some of the older generation do participate, my Nanna and Grandad are prove of this. But not all the older generation do not participate. Apple offer support to older people and free tutorials of how to use the technology by making the older generation aware of the facilities and support companies offer will make them feel excited about learning new skills and encourage them when doing so.

Peoples Stories-Liverpool Lives could encourage the older generation to particiapate by showing them a benefit as to why they should share their stories with other people. Competitions could be encouraging. So they feel as though they're recieving something back for sharing their memories.
