Grading A Presentation

                   Ken Robertson presented about how education kills creativity.  I enjoyed his presentation very much because he kept the audience engaged with humorous stories that related to the topic he was talking about. His strength throughout the presentation was keeping the audience engaged. Usually during long presentations like this one I tend to fall asleep, but his jokes and the audience's laughter kept me awake and engaged. He could improve on his transitions and organization though. The way he would transition from the topic to an engaging joke and back to the topic from time to time was a little confusing and hard to follow. According to the rubric that I was handed in class, I gave him an overall grade of 90. I gave him this grade because he did keep the audience engaged, but lacked in organization, talked a little too fast and was kind of hard to follow at times.
                   I do agree with what he was saying about how education kills creativity. In his presentation he states that "We are born with creativity, but education takes it away as we move up." And its true, just like if you don't practice a sport, instrument, math or writing- you'll lose that skill later on in life. Education is just as important as a child's creativity.
