University of Utah Adequate Preparation and Visual Aids Importance HW

I need support with this Communications question so I can learn better.

PART 1

Describe a presentation you gave in the past where you used visual aids ineffectively? Why/how was this in ineffective use of visual aids?

(One of the presentation that that i did back in 2017 was about marketing. The presentation was about 18- 20 minutes and I didn’t put any video in my slides which was kind of boring.

I will add a photo from the book and article talk about video in presentation you should use a quote from it and points. )

Knowing what you know now from the readings (Alley, 2013 and/or Gallo, 2014), what could you have done differently with visual aids to make your presentation stronger? Explain.

Instructions:

Responses should be well developed. Responses will be evaluated based on the following criteria:

1. Development and completeness of response: Responses should be fully developed (at

least 150 words). Did the student effectively address the prompt? Was response

complete and well developed?

2. Thoughtfulness of response: Did this response appear to be thoughtful? Did the student

think critically about the material? Did the student connect ideas in a meaningful way?

3. The quality of the written response: Did the student proof read their response? Were

there grammatical and/or spelling errors? Did the student answer in complete sentences?

4. The use of citations: Each week, in your response to the prompt you should include at

least one source citation (i.e., one of the assigned readings).

citations that adhere to APA guidelines—it should be clear to me which points in your

response come from the readings and which points are coming from you. There is no

need to include a bibliographic reference. Did the student effectively apply course

concepts and/or theories? Was the student able to apply ideas presented in the readings

to their own example/story/experience?

5. Conclude with a thought-provoking question: Since you are required to respond to one

another’s posts, it is effective to open dialogue in your original post by inviting

participation. You should end your own response with an open-ended question to

encourage people to engage in the discussion further. Don’t just conclude with, “What do

you think?” Rather, ask thought-provoking questions. If the question can be answered with

a simple “yes” or “no,” it is not a good question.

PART 2

PEER RESPONSES. You are also required to respond to at least two other student’s posts/threads on each discussion board.

1. 1. 1. Response posts should also be thoughtful and well written. They should demonstrate that you have either learned from another’s post, or that another’s post enabled you to see things differently, or relate to another student on a new level. Simply responding with, “I like your post” or “You make an interesting point” is not sufficient.
      2. Read what other students have to say and comment on their posts. If someone makes an interesting observation or point, let them know you appreciated their insights and explain how their story has resonated with you. Alternatively, perhaps you disagree with what another student says. Reply (politely) with a critique. You might say, “I understand your perspective, but I viewed this differently…..” Engage in a conversation and invite others to join the conversation.
