MA Presentations

MA Presentations

Today I managed to get up to Middlesex University in time to support the MA students in their final presentations. This was something I have wanted to do over the past months but thought this time was beneficial as I am presenting my inquiry on the 7th June.

We met at the Ritterman dance studio on campus where Module 3 presentations will also be held, I felt reassured seeing the space so I can now visualise how my own will go. The course was small only having 4 students but was interesting to see each inquiry process, what methods they used to present and the use of their voice, body language and presentation skills.

Your presentation is your own take on your inquiry, there was use of powerpoint, video and audio, music, images and text displayed through participants own laptop/ipad/phone. Important point I took away from today was to practice what your going to say, and send a back up of your presentation to Adesola or Helen incase of lost connection.

Well done to all MA students today and to all Module 3's preparing for presentations.

Presentations

Presentations:

The relief after submitting my dissertation feels wonderful!! After all the study days in cafes and evenings at home it was amazing to submit the file into Turnitin on Monday.

Looking back over the handbook I have now started to piece my presentation together, drawing a section from my artefact video and including slides from my inquiry. I plan to talk through the 10 slides I've chosen to tell my audience and tutors the journey Iv undergone in the past 6 months.

As I am the last group to present my inquiry I plan to attend the afternoon group presentations on Wednesday 30th to get a feel of the questions that follow up the presentation.

I hope everyone is pleased will the work they have submitted, I cant believe its about to come to an end!

Artefact

Artefact

As soon as I finished drafting my critical review I began with the planning for the artefact. As I missed the last Skype call I gathered some info on other Module 3's blogs on this. Some important points I have taken are,

- Its not about the findings, but the process
- The artefact is an adaption of each element
- The artefact is less formal than the review
- Explain the inquiry as if it was to someone who had no idea on my topic
- PRACTICE WHAT I AM GOING TO SAY


From here I am currently planning to create an audio visual on my practice that explains the journey I have taken for my inquiry. I would then like to create a set of codes I find valuable from my findings to share in my artefact and presentation.
