Company - Ferris.

The department - R&D

Summary of Individual Presentation

The Individual Presentation will be a reflection piece on your personal experience within the Executive Team of your Company. It will revolve around two key areas:

1) Self-Reflection of Learning within the Capstone Business Simulation, and
2) Analysis of the Team Dynamics.
A short and engaging individual presentation of 3-4 minutes (4 minutes maximum) is required.

Students are encouraged to explore various ways of creating a professional online presentation. This may involve using media enhancements in the presentation, if appropriate.

The presentation is expected to be formal in nature, but please note: A formal presentation does not equal a boring presentation! Do not let the word ‘formal' stifle your creativity when presenting; interaction and creativity in your presentation are encouraged. You are expected to use the skills you have learnt over the course of your degree to keep the audiences interest.

The presentation must be conducted in one of two different ways:
1) Live to your tutor in-class (for those still attending class) or using Blackboard Collaborate (for those in an online class) during each students scheduled seminar 12 (the last seminar of the semester), or
2) Pre-recorded and uploaded to a free viewing platform (such as YouTube, TikTok etc.) where a login is NOT required and a link to view your presentation can be provided to the tutor.
Whichever presentation method is chosen by students, the due date and time remains as the beginning of each students scheduled seminar 12 (the week of 2-6 November, 2020).

Students who choose the pre-recorded option are expected to have a webcam, therefore it is strongly recommended students use their webcam whilst presenting. A webcam is not compulsory, but a look at the Individual Presentation Rubric will highlight its value.

Rather the focus should be on the company and team as a whole. The presentation must remain objective. Any personal criticism will not be tolerated, in the (online) classroom nor in the workplace.
