In Support of Using Presentation in ES1102

I personally feel that doing a presentation for our papers in ES1102 greatly benefits us.

Firstly, it forces us to pull out the main ideas from our papers. The preparation for the presentation requires us to organise our ideas logically and fluently, which serves as a check for our essays. If our presentations do not flow logically or the main ideas are not presented clearly, it reflects the similar lack in the essays. A good presentation will reflect a good structure and content in the essay.

Presentations can serve to boost the confidence of students. Students who are not very efficient in writing may be good with presentation skills. This can help boosts their confidence. Similarly, students who are shy and reserved will be force to take a step forward. It will develop their self confidence.

Presentation skills, I believe are as important as writing skills. We spend more time conversing to others than writing. I support the idea of implementing presentation in ES1102.
