5 thoughts on “Slides for TED Talk”

I think your layout is really nice, you can see how you go from your personal experiences to how the phenomenon of spring break started, and then to what spring break is like now. My only suggestion is to try to make the visuals a little more cohesive, possibly by adding borders to the images? It might help tie everything together more.
Thinking about the content, it seems like you’re going to start out talking about your spring break, go to the origins, go to the growth in the United States with college students, what it’s like now, and finally talk about what it looks like in modern time, and how that came to be. I like the inclusion of the graphs, and the titles are strong indicators of what’s on the slide.
I like the layout of the slides a lot, the only thing I’d be worried about is the flow of the TedTalk. For me, going from the history, to why spring break is important, to modern travel seems a little bit janky–However, I have no idea how your speech is going to go, so obviously don’t change your plan if it’s working.
I like your progression and even anecdotal additions to the presentation. I think it has a good consistency to it and has potential to create a clear storyline/narrative. The only think I would make sure to add is a works cited page.
I think this is a really unique concept. It will be interesting to hear your take on this because I have definitely thought about this myself; I feel like “Spring Break” was probably historically a more innocent thing, but now I think the immediate connotation definitely goes along with college students and drinking. I think it is interesting that you are going to add your own photos/experience.
