OUGD602 - PPP Presentation

OUGD602 - PPP Presentation Notes

When it comes to presentations I get extremely nervous beforehand, therefore, I find it extremely useful to practice multiple times beforehand to not only ensure I know exactly what I'm talking about but to also make sure I'm within the time frame as usually, it tends to go a lot slower than you think. I practised the presentation at least 4 times before the real thing to ensure it was around the 10min mark.

Overall I'm pleased with how the presentation went. I remembered everything that I wanted to say and didn't let my nerves get the better of me. I also managed to finish just within the time at 9 mins 30 seconds which means my practice paid off.
