Spoken+Presentation

=**__ Spoken Presentation __**=

In today’s computer class you should:

**1.** Choose a company for your presentation.

**2.** Take a piece of paper from the box – this will tell you the audience for your presentation.

**3.** Post the name of your company and your audience in the discussion tab for your class.
 * Make sure you can find information on the company before you choose.**
 * Make sure no other student has the same company with the same audience. **

**4.** Write the plan for your presentation. You must give your plan to your teacher by the end of Week 6. Your plan should include:

** The name of the company ** ** Your audience ** ** An outline of your talk: ** **__ Introduction __**** – Greetings; Welcome; Introduce yourself; What you are going to talk about in your presentation ** **__ Body __**** – The different parts of your talk. One part of your talk must include a short history of the company. The other parts will depend on your audience. ** **__ Conclusion __**** – Thank the audience; answer any questions. **

Your plan is a short outline of your talk. You can change your plan at any time. You can type it on Microsoft Word or hand write it.

**5.** Now you are ready to research your company and begin writing your presentation.
 * __ You should do this using English websites. __**

You should have __at least__ your introduction finished by Wk 7 when we will practice this part of the presentation in class.

Remember to **keep it simple**. Don’t copy and paste from the website – use your own words! Use spoken English – don’t just memorise and recite written English.

Here are two links that may be helpful for your research:

www.google.com use the English version, not the Chinese version. In the search box type the name of your company. Most company websites have a link to an “About” page that gives basic information.

www.thetimes100.co.uk Click on the "companies" tab and you can find lots of information about different companies.

** Remember to write down the address of any websites you use so that you can cite them. **
