Memo
To: Kat Kadian-Baumeyer, Professor
From: Megan Cook, Student Date: December 24, 2023
Subject: Oral Presentation Critique on Urban, T. Inside the mind of a master procrastinator. TED Talks.
Strong Areas
The strengths of this speaker were his ability to connect and interact with the audience through relatable circumstances and humor. As soon as the speaker hit the stage, he had a fun presence that immediately caught the eye of the audience. Another strength the speaker had in this oral presentation was his use of technology and pictures to help convey his humor and information. He was able to provide satire images to help the audience better understand the factors that play into procrastination. I also really enjoyed the visual of time that he displayed through how many boxes we have left that represented a week of our lifetime. Weak Areas/Suggestions for Improvement
The speaker did not display many weak areas in this oral presentation. The only area for improvement that I would suggest is his posture. Standing tall with a strong poster can help create a more professional feel and demand more attention from the audience.
