Initial Feedback and Critique Scheduling
Get into the assigned groups. Do the following:

1. Have each person talk through their presentation in turn.  They should address:
   1. What are you thinking about for your presentation?  Where are you right now?
   2. What are you feeling good about right now- where are the strong points?
   3. What are you concerned about?  Where do you need help?
   4. Show the group your slides, talk them through what they mean.
   5. What kind of help do you need?  Are there questions you have that the group could help you with?
2. After the student talks through their presentation, the group will give informal verbal feedback on their slides and their presentation ideas.
3. The presenter should commit to an area of focus for upcoming work time.

Once every member has talked through their presentations, you should schedule your critiques for Thursday and Friday.  You can do 2-3/day, as the critique protocol should take 30 minutes. Write on the board who is being critiqued on what day.

Revise TED Talk Slides and Outline
Take your feedback, make it better!  Make notecard, refine slides, etc.
