TED Talk Evaluation
  Presentation
     By: Alan Showecker
Steve Jobs
Thesis

“I want to tell you three stories from my life.
   That’s it. no big deal, just three stories.”
                   - Steve Jobs
He begun his speech with admitting to
  never being as close to a college
 graduation ceremony such as this.




     “Truth be told.. uh, I never graduated from
     college. And uh.. this is the closest i’ve ever
           gotten to a college graduation.”
                     - Steve Jobs
• He continued to share his three stories
  from his life.
The TED
Commandments
• Steve utilized the fourth commandment
  which was, “Thou shalt tell a story.”
• He shared his experiences throughout his
  life up to this point.
Dynamism


• I would rate Steve’s dynamism at 5.
• i felt that his delivery and execution in the
  speech was outstanding.
- A tip that Steve was able to deliver his
 presentation is keeping eye contact on
   everyone and not on one section.
My Evaluation

• One thing I’ve learned from observing
  Steve’s speech is to keep eye contact, don’t
  be afraid to use humor in your speech for
  comic relief and to keep the audience
  entertained.
Ken Robinson vs. Steve Jobs
Ken vs. Steve

• Both Ken and Steve used humor to engage
  with the audience, as well as keep them
  entertained.
Ken vs. Steve
                   Comparisons


•   In Ken Robinson’s TED speech, “School Kills
    Creativity”, he is only verbal with the audience. No
    slides were aided with his speech, only his charm
    and poise kept the audience entertained.

•    Steve was able to do the same for his speech.
    Because of their communication skills, both Ken
    and Steve maintained the audiences attention.
Ken vs. Steve
                 Contrasts


• In Ken’s second video he captured the
  audience with visuals such as his drawing
  typography.
• Steve was not able to use that kind of
  delivery for this speech.
Tips

• Always give proper eye contact.
• Humor is always welcome.
• Be yourself.
• And of course, have fun!
Thank you for watching
   my presentation!
