Ignite Presentations: Learner Response

The Handmaid's Tale  Great opening slide- solid opening clearly laying out the text and narrative. Several slides used to get narrative across- suggests good planning and rehearsal. Moves on to feminism and modern context- this is excellent and will be a key part of the essay. Wider contexts clearly a strength- Poland and Planned Parenthood. Excellent research and engagement- if anything could offer more here Moves on to representation- again, excellent well thought out structure. The presentation flows really well.  Race/slavery content is interesting - but possibly a tangent too far with the gender/feminism angle? Excellent use of imagery and gifs to illustrate points. Presentation doesn't cover all key concepts-this demonstrates academic judgement and is a strength to the work. However, perhaps needed to consider audience/media effects briefly?     Significance  5     Structure      5     Simplicity     4     Rehearsal     4 Q+A: Nice opening Q on narrati
