Oral Presentations in the classroom

Created with Padlet

This is a padlet with some examples of oral presentations of books and magazine articles the students had read (we usually do this in a JIGSAW dynamics).
The first time there are likely to be texts copied from Google, presentations read from notes etc. But by observing their peers with "detective cards", students soon become aware of what makes a good presentation.
