Throughout today’s lesson I successfully delivered my poster presentation on my research topic, how did the terror attack in 2015 affect Tunisia’s tourism. Firstly, I explained my research with the HNC students where I described what my research was, my key primary and secondary findings, conclusion and recommendations. I then went on to ask for their opinions and advice what they thought about the topic. I felt this was good for them as it gives them help for when they are carrying this unit out.
I felt quite confident with my presentation as I knew all of my data and research, I found was an interesting topic and with what is going on in the world now other people take interest in this topic to see other people’s opinions. When I was delivering my presentation, I was feeling a little nervous as thoughts was going through my head; what if people think this topic is stupid, what if people ask questions and I don’t know the answer too etc… but once the presentation was over, I was feeling fine and shocked myself with answering people’s questions with confidence. I felt I was very self-confident during the presentation.
Once this was accomplished, the other students gave me some feedback, which I was very surprised at as they were all positive and people said it was such an interesting topic and I explained my presentation very clear and they understood what I was talking about, they said it looked very professional, good use of references and good use of charts and pictures. These comments prove I must have good communication skills, listening skills and social skills.
In general, I was made up and feeling very proud of myself with my presentation and how well I did, this unit will 100% help me in future units and tasks as I have learnt to always prepare myself so when I have a presentation to make sure I know what I am talking about and take my time. So, I would say this unit boosted my presentation skills. If I had the chance to present my presentation again, I would be more confident ask them if they have any questions instead of them thinking should I ask a question or not?
