Important info about your presentations

The level 3 presentations are individual 4-minute Career-related presentations that students have to give.



Here are the important points to remember:


1. You are not allowed to read. You can use notes but you should only glance at them from time to time.


2. Students who read their presentations can be marked normally but their mark should be divided in two (e.g. highest mark for readers = 3.5).


3. You should apply same criteria in the case of slide shows full of text. A slide show should contain summarised information, not long pieces of text. Ideally, each slide should contain no more than 3 or 4 words.


4. Remember, this activity accounts for 20% of the final mark so try your best!
