Peer Feedback

Sarah

Major Argument: Vocal Achord is an exciting and fun musical group.

Strengths: The logos presented a very clear message and helped portray a sense of liveliness. The musical symbols and references as well as the name of the group itself let the audience know what the group is about. The lettering as well as the orientation of some of the symbols helped present the group as fun-loving and exciting.

Things to Develop: Color will definitely help make the logo more eye-catching as well as help the words to stand out from the background and be more legible.


Charlie

Major Argument: Club Indigo is a neat place to learn about various cultures, experience community, and have a good time through food, entertainment, and social interaction.

Strengths: The presentation was able to stand on its own. It presented a clear message and was very informative. The text stood out well from the background and was easy to read. I definitely think that the pictures, when added, will help draw in the audience even more.

Things to Develop: Some of the slides had too much information on them and were hard to get through before the slide changed. One thing I noticed is that you say, "Why should I go?" on one slide. But then say, "Hope to see you soon!" on another. It might help if you changed the former to the second person 'you' instead of 'I' for consistency's sake.


James

Major Argument: Online piracy is a prevalent and serious problem.

Strengths: Statistics and numbers are visually represented well and help to make the message clear. The color contrast helps important information to stand out. Graphics help keep the audience engaged.

Things to Develop: This may just be a personal preference, but if you could lighten the background a bit it might make the black text easier to read. 


Cassandra

Major Argument: Greek life offers a lot of leadership opportunities.

Strengths: The presentation is informative and specific. The choice of medium is good because the movement it allows helps give a sense of energy and excitement to the presentation. Color contrast helped the text to stand out.

Things to Develop: There were a few instances where the text was hard to read because of the size and because there were too many colors going on at once. Try slowing it down ever so slightly to make sure the audience has time to read everything. I may have missed it if you already did this, but changing the orientation of the presentation (i.e. rotating or flipping it) might make it more dynamic and attention-grabbing.
