Week2 presentation
1. Juan Enriquez gave a speech called “Will our kids be a different
species?” The main topic of this speech is, are we changing over
time?
2. Juan Enriquez maintained the attention of the audience in
his introduction by telling a story in a comical way in his
introduction. He gradually got more serious so he wouldn’t
lose or confuse his audience until he hit his main point
and hit the audience with a question to think about at the
end. “Will our kids be a different species?”
3. Evaluating Juan Enriquez on his speech, I would give him
a 5 out of 5 because he’s giving the audience so much
information, and the way he explains it makes it easy to
understand and follow.
4. 3 tips you can learn from Garr Reynolds is:
Customize your content to the audience
Use your slides as humorous punctuations
Leave the audience feeling smarter
5. What I’ve learned from Juan Enriquez after hearing his
speech is that short pauses and jokes can mean a whole
lot of a difference of the audience understanding and
maintaining the information. Giving all the information at
once can make you lose your audience in what you’re
talking about and eventually, lose interest.
6. Similarities
Comparing Sir Ken Robinson’s videos, “Schools Kill
Creativity” and “Changing Education Paradigms”, we’ll
have to start with they both have similar arguments on
what’s wrong with our education system such as the
education system is becoming less and less creative and
more repetitive. As if we’re making copies of every child
instead of inspiring them to become unique and their own
person
7. Differences
In “Schools kill Creativity”, he talks about changing the
way education is taught so creativity can grow and the
future generation can better prepare themselves for what
lies ahead. In “Changing Education Paradigms”, it was all
about proving that our civilization’s teaching methods are
old and not useful for our time period, which needs to
change for a better future.
8. The most important tip I can give from Juan Enriquez’s
speech is if your speech has a lot of technical or important
details to tell, try to break it up and make the mood less
serious at times so the audience has time to retain what
they just heard.
9. While listening to Juan Enriquez’s speech, I was thinking
about the difference between the generations in my family.
From my parents, to my grandparents, and I realized that
there’s definitely a chance in the way we think and act.
10. When Juan Enriquez talks about our brains processing
data and how it’s evolving to process more. I’m not too
sure that’s true in my experience. Each generation had
their own knowledge to remember and their own
responsibilities. What seemed hard then and easy now is
just because of technology today that does most of the
work for us.
11. I do believe humans as a whole are changing as a
species because of the world we created for ourselves. As
any animal, we evolve to our changing environment.
