How
my group organized the presentation on the writing a summary
My group made a
presentation on the writing a summary at class last week. It is a good topic
for student improving their skills. Also, it is a good challenge for my group
who prepared a group of presentation about this topic. It is first hard for us how
to make a good presentation for this topic. So we made some processes to
preparing the topic, which included the select topic, made an outline, make a presentation.
Frist, one of process is choose a good topic it is important.
My group was confused when select different topics from the Website, because a
topic has many information which cannot put all of them on the class. A decision
we made it we compared ours ideas, which was most similar about writing. After
it, we pick it as ours presentation. However, my group has two people, who was
made different steps one was research any information about the topics, another
had to find useful information put it on the topic. My task was that I found
the information from a blog about why writing a summery is important, and what
are basic steps for writing a good summary. Even I used some comments when I
read some message at Website and some examples to support ours topic.
Second, made an outline it could be good way to structure
your research information. An outline has an introduction that included a topic
sentence, thesis statement, and the controlling ideas. Next it is your body paragraph, it should
connect your main topic. In addition, use some examples to consolidate your
ideas. Last one is conclusion it connects your topic and main points with your
ideas. Furthermore, some of ideas could be suggested at class, it could be easy
to interaction with students.
Make a presentation is hard for us, because we have to
two people, we have to make order at this topic. We used a PPT at the class, it
included most of important contents for ours presentation. One of my group, he
made introduction, it was that why is writing summaries important. Then, I was
focus on the main points how to step to step write a summary. One is skim the
text you are going to summarize and divide it into sections and focus on
headings and subheadings. Then, you read the selection and read straight
though, trying to find main points. Next, write a thesis statement when you
read all of text and review the main ideas and points. Even though you could
write first draft used some transition words (then, however, also) that help
with the overall structure. Last check your grammar, punctuation. If possibly
ask someone to check your summary.
Finally, my group made a good presentation on the writing
a perfect summary. It is useful when you write a summary, just flow these step
it could be simple to write a good summary. Some attrition we made on the
presentation such as transition words, grammar, and basic outline we narrated. Those
could be ways and helping your writing.
