NURS 602 Assignment 8.1 Project Evaluation

Criteria

Points

Clarity: The audience can get to know the problem and the resources employed to analyze the problem.

I believe that you were well structured and appeared to know your topic of choice, the Opioid Epidemic in the United States. Many a useful piece of information was given in a manner that was easily comprehensible throughout. There were certain points that I noticed. The former was the death toll per day, and the sum of money allocated to recovery efforts. As is evident, the opioid crisis has both tangible and financial consequences. Another aspect that caught my attention was the impact that opioid use has on the development of neonatal, and you discussed the stigma associated with using and abusing opioids. I believe that stigma may also make people avoid taking help, particularly at a time when they are in the most need of help. It is evident that you have conducted a lot of research, and you could synthesize the information. Your presentation is credible considering the statistics and references you presented, and I have one question. Is this a state or national average when you said; Approximately 130 people a day die of opioid overdose? Assuming it is a particular state, what state is it?

25

Creativity in presentation (bullet points, pictures, etc.)

I believe that the presentation was interesting, and you used pictures. The images were not too flashy and distracting, and provided the appropriate amount of attention-grabbing quality. Headings and subheadings were used properly.

15

Ability to engage the audience

I did not get bored when you were speaking, and I like the fact that you did not hurry through the presentation. It was simple to navigate, articulate, and concise. Your presentation was stable and consistent in terms of intonation, and you remained calm and coherent.

Presentation style (e.g., no hesitations or use of um’s)

I believe that you had confidence during the presentation with little signs of being nervous. Breaks were taken when necessary, not more than normal. Overall, great presentation!
