As Week 7 began, my focus shifted towards preparing for the upcoming formative presentation of my final project. I started by outlining the key messages I wanted to communicate, making sure to present the problem clearly, along with my proposed solution.
One of the most helpful parts of the week was watching the first round of peer presentations. Seeing how others structured their slides and explained their ideas gave me valuable insight into how I could improve my own approach. I noticed the importance of grounding the project in academic research, so I went back and added key references from my literature review to support the need for my project. This made my presentation align with academic expectations.
By the end of the week, I felt more confident in both the structure and the content of my slides. Watching my peers and revisiting my literature helped me strengthen my message and prepare for the feedback I would receive in Week 8.
