View Full Version : If You Had To Give a Presentation On Anything...
Yates

What would it be any why?
Ive got to give a seven minute one at work, can be on anything i want, and i cant decide, as it can be anything its harder to come up with an idea.
It has to be sensible, and interesting (not football related). So anyone got any ideas what i could do?
I was going to do it on why we shouldnt give to animal charities but it could turn into a bit of a debate, which is not what i should be doing, interaction is fine, but not full blown debate.
I do expect the usual stupid answers but would like some sensible ones too

i think something youre intrested in and passionate about as it gives you more to talk about?

why everybody should drive 106's and saxo's that way everybody would drive safely as ..lets face it nobody really wants to crash in a saxo do they?

being a chef, and loving sandwiches, it would be the arguement, can you call a sandwich, a sandwhich, if it hasnt got butter on the bread, im not taking the piss now either, as once in tesco i had a corned beef sandwich which had no butter to my dissappointment, and the corned beef had nothing to stick it to the bread, and whilst driving, the corned beef fell out, true story too

Just choose something really random that you know nothing about, that way you will present the information you found interesting and miss out the mundane information.
Could do a talk about how to perform an appendicectomy, never know when you might need to!! This is where I learnt how to do it before my first go! http://www.surgeons.org.uk/general-surgery-operation-howto/open-appendicectomy.html

It cant be anything to in detail, as if you bore them, you get marked down for it, i have to do two, one 12 min, one 7 min, 12 minute one im doing on what was my track build saxo, i know all bout it and can easily talk for 12 minutes on it, its just the 7 minute one.
The sandwich one is really good example, i could take in examples too. Something to think about i suppose.

Talk about the history of the sandwich and its evolution over the years and then show one of them fuck off massive american full fat ones that have a small farmyard worth of animals inside.

I thought they were quite humane really, its how the nazi's did it anyway.
If you have a projector or a dvd player make a dvd player with a slideshow of amazing engineering things, and a short 5 seconds on each on with a few fact, always amazing stuff. but obv focus on somthing aswell to take up the 7 minutes.

What is the purpose of the presentation?
Is it to test your competency under pressure, character or something obscure?
How about a presentation on the evolution of mealtimes, and how we've gone from treating eating as a necessity to being a social event? You could integrate the history of the sandwich and educate everyone as to why you eat lunch at lunchtime, tea at tea time and dinner in the evening.
Food for thought

Dont know how you could make a presentation about it as you cant really explain much, but what about do it on the unexplainable, like how big the universe is, what happens after we die etc just try not to get emotional about it n abit soft gazing into the air getting all dreamy.
Always amazes me, like get one of them pics where you got the earth then the rest of the universe, the earth would be like a lil marble in your presentation room. and the room being the univere of course.

Dude, find something that has a bit of history, is not common (and certainly not work related - too predictable) and will make them smile at the end of it.
A presentation has to consist of 4 main parts:
Intro - reason you are there and the agenda
Body - talking about your chosen subject
Conclusion - wrap up the whole presentation in a few sentences
Tag line - a little subject related fact (funny usually) to make the pannel smile at the end of it

Navy have there own way of setting it out and expect it in that format. Altho its not far off yours Craig.
Basically its to test us on how we give the brief (body language), how we have researched and public speaker. I have no problems standing up infront of x amount of people speaking.
I would never do it on something to do with work, as knowning my luck i will have someone who knows alot more than me sat listening.
Sandwich is certainly a winner at the moment, its different, I can bring in examples, therefore getting interaction
