1. The element of Steve Job's presentations that i like the most is he makes it energizing.
2. I have seen more of bad presentations.
3. The worse presentation I've seen is when the speaker don't speak loud and they chew gum and all you hear is them smacking the gum and muttering. The good presentation I've seen is when the speaker talks loud and clear and dose not mumble their words or slur them and they make their presentation's clear and understandable.
4. The one thing I struggle with the most is my shyness. I am a very shy person and when I get shy, I start to talk real fast to hurry up and get it done and over with.
1. I like the way he demonstrates and shows videos to bring the people in.
2. I haven't really seen many presentations except for at school and those aren't that great.
3. All of the ones that we have at school.
4. I kind of get nervous sometimes, because I don't really like getting up in front of people. It all depends on what I have to do.
I like the fact that he can present in front of a lot of people and be nerves. I have seen more bad presentations than I have seen good presentations. The worst presentation was in eighth grade on the last day of school. The best was my ninth grade year when we have the first meeting. The thing I struggle with is that I get nerves when talk in front of a lot of people.
The theme was what I liked the most. I've seen more, good presentations.The worst presentation I've seen, wasn't put together well at all. It was also a little boring. I like Powerpoints that catch my attention, like colorful powerpoints. The best I've seen, was packed with information, colors, and great animations. Sometimes, I get nervous, but not all the time. When I get nervous, I start reading really fast and I lose my breath. It's actually kind of funny.
I think that the main element that I like about Steve Jobs performance or presentation is that he starts and end each section. I have seen more bad presentations then good. The worst presentation I have ever seen was in one of my teachers classes. It was death by PowerPoint to say the least. The thing I struggle with the most when presenting to a class figuring out what I am going to say and where to start and where to end.
I like the fact how Jobbs would get the audience involved with every thing he would be talking about. I have probably seen more good presentations than bad ones. The worst presentations was world history two with Mr. Ashe, the best would be the one Mrs. Delk gave a few weeks ago about graduating and scholarships. I struggle most with keeping everyone interested in what I am talking about when I give presentations.
I like the way he leaves a little surprise for you at the end of every presentation he gives. Its like getting a special gift on your birthday or Christmas. More bad than good. Most people get into a serious and stiff mood. If you relax and act yourself and enjoy being up there. The worst I really don't know about. The best is is Steve Jobs. He makes it more fun and its so much interesting. The one thing i struggle with is nervousness and thinking people will not like my presentation. I still try my hardest though every time.
I like the way he always has something else at the end. I have seen a few good presentations. The worst I saw, the guy was nervous, stuttering, not relaxed, and he was not speaking loud enough. The one thing I have a problem with when presenting is being nervous. I get nervous when talking in front of many people.
The element of Steve jobs presentations that I like the most is the way it feels when he talks to you, it feels like he’s talking to you. I have a lot of bad presentations in my day. And maybe had one or two good ones. The worst that I have seen is when it god on and on and on and puts you to sleep. Trying to not go to sleep.

The element of Steve Jobs' presentations I like the most is his visuals. Looking at images is better than reading a lot of information on a presentation. I have seen more bad presentations. The worst presentation I have seen is the presentations that have only notes on them. The best presentation I have seen is the presentation on the blog video that Steve Jobs did. The one thing I struggle with most when presenting to a class is I do not like being the center of attention when I am forced to. I do not like getting up in front of the class and being asked questions that I do not know the answer to. I want to go up there, get done what I have to get done and go sit down.
Steve Jobs keeps his presentations interesting. He keeps things flowing and on topic. Steve knew how to grab a person's attention. I have seen more good presntations than bad ones. I do not rememeber the best or worse presntaiton I have seen but I do know that the back to school presentations are boring. The one thing that I struggle with the most is standing in front of the class because I get nervous.
1. I like the fact that he is interactive with the audience, keeps your interest by moving around, showing what he’s saying, and stays on topic.
2. At our school, presentations are over used and boring. When we go to assemblies, it’s always the same old thing and it seems as if they depend on the presentation to do the work for them and they don’t have much to say. We’re taught that Power Point is good, but if everyone does it, it’s just like you’re the ninety-ninth paper that has to be read so you need to captivate the audience! Presentations need to be different, whether the software changes or people just do something out of the ordinary for once.
3. Well at our last assembly, the speaker would run through slides and read word for word what was written on them. Anyone can do that! Everyone was off in their own little world not interested, the least bit, in what was going on. It was one of the worst I had seen. Nobody has every really fascinated me until I saw the short clip of Mr. Jobs presentation. More people should watch it and take notes.
4. I sort of struggle with speaking. I know exactly what I want to say, but I don’t always pin-point it. I have a lot of thoughts but can’t always get my words out the way I want them to.
1) The element that I like most about Steve Jobs' presentations is that he uses images and very little words to catch the attention of his audiences. 2) I have seen more bad presentations than good presentations. 3) The worst presentation I have seen was last year when the teacher talked during the whole thing, and the best was when the person used images that caught my attention. 4) The thing that I struggle with the most is the fact that I have too talk in front of the class.
I think it's cool how he doesn't put a bunch of words in his slides! That way it's not too much, so the audience won't get tired of it. I think I’ve seen good and bad presentations, I can't say I’ve ever seen an excellent presentation though. A lot of people are shy to get in front people and speak. I can say I am one of those people. I hate speaking in front of people; it's definitely one of my least favorite things to do. I think what bothers me the most about it is having a group of people listening to me so I know I can't mess up or they will notice it and then that will be embarrassing. The worst presentation I’ve ever seen has to be the ones at school; they don't seem to ever make them interesting. They are dull are boring! I can't really recall the best presentation I’ve ever seen.
The most favorable presentation to me is the new thin apple laptop; I believe that his presentations were very different and unique from a lot of presentations I have seen. Some of our school presentations are very long and boring they don't have no excitement or anything to draw our interest. The best presentation I have witness was when I was in the Middle School it was graphics sounds and the best advertisement .I believe the most thing I struggle with is talking in front of at first as how to start it off and draw people attention and not bore them. !
In Steve’s presentation I like all the visual effects that he uses. In my past I’ve seen more bad presentations then good. The worst presentation I have had would have to be in my history class so many bullets and text not enough pictures and animations. The best would probably have to be the apple presentation that I watched it had so many neat things. The one thing I struggle with in presenting is finding stuff to talk about while I’m up there.
To me most of the presentations were really good because he interacts with his audience. To me when you can keep the audience interested like he does, it makes presentations more alive and interesting. He explains the material really well and gives people a good visual of what he is presenting. The one thing I struggle the most with in a class is, when I do not know everyone and you have to speak in front of them. I rather be know everyone and feel comfortable with the people that I am speaking to
Keith Bryant: Steve Jobs was an excellent presenter, but his best element would have to be his enthusiasm with the crowd. Well in my life as a teenager I have so many presentations, some bad well in fact terrible, some good, and some incredibly effective. The worst presentations I have seen would have to in Mr. Ashe class they were so dull and monotone it literally was hard to stay awake. That is also the reason I failed my first class ever , talk about furious. Then I had one of the best while I was attending a presentation at the University of Virginia Tech for the Corp of Cadets, lets just say it was so inspirational that it made me choose the career of the rest of my life. I love to present, all of it, the attention, the fact that I am getting something across to lots of people, and the fact that I know that I’m a leader.
The element Steve Jobs’ uses in his presentations that I like the most is that he always offers an outline for his audience to let them know what’s coming up next and to get an idea of how long the presentation will last. I have seen more presentations that were completely horrible and a waste of time than very good, effective ones. School presentations are generally the worst because most teachers will require that everyone does a presentation, even when some people are clearly not cut out for it. The best presentation I’ve ever seen was at the Virginia State Beta Convention when the audience was literally moved to tears by a motivational, teenage speaker. When presenting to a class, I struggle the most with remembering to slow down and not speed through the information I need to portray. It is very important for the listeners to have a clear understanding of what is being said during the presentation and that can’t happen if the speaker is going too fast.
