Compare - Contrast Presentation

Here is the file that explains compare/contrast style presentations.

Print it, read it, and bring it for Tuesday. This time, you will need to organize effectively. PPT presentations are welcome from now on.

Think of a few things that you can compare -- things you really care about. You are helping others make a good choice. That is the goal.

Autobiographical presentation...


Please print out this file... read it over. We will discuss this in class.

Think of an experience that changed you. It doesn't have to be super-dramatic, but the purpose (lesson learned), should be of use to the other students. The key is that we learn from your experience.

Also, I'd like you to watch this video about success:



Notice how he says "To know what you want, to understand why you’re doing it, to dedicate every breath in your body to achieve. If you feel you have something to give, if you feel that your particular talent is worth developing or is worth caring for, then there is nothing you can’t achieve."

Just wanting to be successful is not enough. You have to find what it is that you have to give.

Think about that for your next presentation. You experienced something in your life, and now you have a chance for us to re-live that experience with you. You can also show us what you learned in that experience so that we are wiser...

Just meditate on that...
