Group Presentations Review: Remuneration

Vivid Group:

The Vivid Group did the final group presentation on the subject of remuneration.
Their presentation was inconsistent, some members presented clearly and engagingly, but, possibly as a result of the topic rather than personal choice, went in to far more detail than was useful, creating something of an overload of information, while other members seemed unsure of what they where talking about and where overly vague.
The members in the first group where surprisingly competent at audience engagement, only glancing down at their notes occasionally and speaking clearly and informatively. Those in the second group fell into the common trap of spending most of their time talking to their notes.
The Prezi presentation was well structured but had too much text on the screen, meaning it was difficult to get a clear picture of what they where saying, especially with some members talking at an excessive speed.

The written presentation was detailed but suffered from too many unexplained terms an concepts. It may have assumed to much about the knowledge of the audience, meaning that complex ideas where being explained without explaining the core ideas that they're built on.

They gave some good examples which where fairly well explained, but the examples didn't really relate to their project, so their usefulness was limited.
Their presentation didn't have many images in it, and the ones that where present where fairly generic stock photos, though this is somewhat understandable given their topic.
They did seem to have a decent understanding of the topic, but some of them seemed unsure how to present this knowledge effectively.
With that being said, it is a difficult topic to make interesting or engaging, so some leeway could perhaps be given for that, but I think a simpler presentation with more direct links to their project would've made it much more informative and engaging.
