- 1. Raymond Rinehart Presenting A TED Talk Evaluation Presentation for Public Speaking Online
- 2. This woman is Jane McGonical and she has the amazing idea to use gamers and gaming to help better the world. She is world renowned video game designer, who makes games that better the quality of life through the same positive influences that we find in any other video games.
- 3. My goal for the next decade is to try to make it as easy to save the world in real life as it is the save the world in online gaming -Jane McGonical This is the quote she led with after introducing herself to captivate the audience. Its such an extreme idea that just shocks the Intrigues you into Wanting to hear more. She Goes on to say Now I have a plan for this
- 4. She continues to maintain the attention of the attention by relaying her plan to the audience. As she shows the audience her current successs and her future ideas the audience can now see that her idea is obtainable. She has games that she has made that has scientific proof that it has directly bettered the game players life and helped better the world.
- 5. The TED Commandment I think Jane follows the best is: Thou Shalt Dream a Great Dream, Show Forth a Wondrous New Thing, Or Share Something Thou Hast Never Shared Before. I mean her dream is to change the world using video games and gamers. Most would find this idea ludicrous but she continues to prove it day in and day out with the games she makes.
- 6. Her Dynamism score from me is a 5/5 hands down. The only thing I think she could possibly done better is get the audience more involved make them play a game to demonstrate how it does work. In one of her other speeches she does do this but its definitely something I think she should add to her speeches about games changing the world.
- 7. In her presentation one tip I think from Gar Reynolds is her slide show presentation maintaining the same theme. Through out the whole speech it was all about proving the her idea was obtainable and true.
- 8. The biggest things I learned about delivering a speech from Jane is that if you have an idea worth sharing and you are passionate about it sharing your idea with the world, The meaning will inspire and people will listen rather than just sit there bored by your speech.
- 9. When comparing Jane McGonical to Sir Ken Robison I would have to say a few things: both people have an amazing drive to dramatically change the world as we know it.
- 10. Both speakers are horribly passionate about there subject and for good reason.
- 11. Both are trying to change the world
- 12. One similarity I found really interesting was that they are both trying to better the world through rechanneling people to to do great things with the abilities that you have. Ken is trying to do it by doing a complete overhaul of the education system.
- 13. Jane does it by making interesting games that encourage gamers to better themselves, collaborate ideas and better the world through games.
- 14. A few tips I can give based off these two amazing TED Talks is be passionate and make sure you have facts to back up your way of thinking.
