Jacqueline's Speech Project

Jacqueline's project was on William Faulkner's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance. Faulkner's speech is on what he encourages young poets to write on. He encourages them to be original, honest, and strong voiced. He believes that writers should write on things that lifts the human spirit, not brings it down, they should bring hope and courage to the soul. Faulkner also advises to not write about lust but love, victory not winnings, and on human spirit not revenge. I think Jacqueline did a good job on her project. She met almost every requirement on the project and transferred the content of the speech to the power point well. There are two things I believe she could have done better. The first, and biggest thing that stood out to me were all the transitions that were placed in the project. The project requirements clearly stated not to use transitions. It took away from the overall project, distracting the class from the project content and turning our attention to the cool transitions. The second thing that could have been improved were a few of the images used in the project. They seemed to be irrelevant to the content being discussed. Other than that, Jacqueline's project was well done and presented nicely.
