You already did the hard part. Lessons 55 and 56 gave you research notes on your platform. Today you shape those notes into a six-section findings draft aimed at about five minutes when delivered.
Save your draft in your Communication Portfolio today. KA3 is banked next lesson, when you deliver it; today is the Presentation Draft.
If your research notes are incomplete, still draft all six sections with what you have, and flag any empty section to fill later. Do not skip the structure.
Next lesson you deliver your findings to the class. A strong five-minute findings piece has six sections. Miss one and the listener loses the thread.
| Term | What it means for you | Real example |
|---|---|---|
| Presentation structure | Six sections, in this order, every time | Hook → platform → inquiry → findings → surprise → sources |
| Hook | One opening line or image before you name the platform | Imagine a club where everyone can see who turned up this morning |
| Findings | Source fact first, then your reading, with the source named | Clubs can post group runs with a meeting point (Support pages); that can make turning up feel expected |
Shape demo only (Strava, not your platform). One short line per section.
Hook: Imagine a club where everyone can see who turned up this morning.
Platform: Strava is an app, free to join, where runners, cyclists and walkers log their activities and follow each other.
Inquiry: How does Strava shape the way clubs keep each other going, and what does sharing routes mean for privacy?
Findings: Clubs post group runs with a meeting point (Strava Support). Maps can show where a run starts unless you hide it (privacy settings). Kudos can feel like being watched as well as cheered (a named news feature).
Surprise: I expected only serious athletes; my notes showed beginners and walking groups using it to keep going.
Sources: Strava Support; one named digital-safety page; one named news feature on fitness apps.
Keep the six model lines as shape only. Rewrite every section for your platform from your own notes and name your own sources.
Write your Presentation Draft in Enter Your Work, one section at a time: HOOK, PLATFORM, INQUIRY, FINDINGS, SURPRISE, SOURCES. The guide below shows what goes in each section and how long it runs. The format you chose in Lesson 54 (slides, short video, poster or podcast script) is the form around these six sections, not a different structure.
Write every section from your research notes. Bullets or short lines are fine. Aim for about five minutes when the piece is delivered as talk, video or podcast; for slides or a poster, the six sections become the slide or panel order.
If a section is empty because your notes are thin, flag it and move on. When the draft is done, copy it into your Communication Portfolio as m2_l57_presentation_draft_<initials> and check the file is in the folder.
Read your six sections once, then rate each row quickly. This checklist is to help you pick a fix, not to score you. There are no grades and no totals.
Comment in detail only on the weakest row. Finish by naming the one fix you will make before you deliver next lesson, and add it on the Fix before next lesson line at the bottom of your draft.
Quick check with the person beside you (or sit with it if you are working alone):
Which of your six sections would still make sense if the listener had never heard of your platform?
If one section only works for people who already know the app, plain-language that section before you deliver. Longer thinking can go in your Reflective Journal tonight if you want it kept.
