Good points
Stayed on the topic and gave a good overview of the Asian Elephant
Displayed a confident presentation and showed that he had researched the topic
fairly well.
Good use of PowerPoint slides, didnt read from slides or notes.
Able to answer the questions of the audience well.
Areas of needed improvement:
Could have taken more care to fully explain the key point in the stage of life
cycle, rather than giving a slab of text on one slide.
Should have used the terms correctly like gestation ( he pointed to the belly and
said this is gestation).
Should have spread out the information over any slides

Spelling of more hey words were wrong :

Font size could have been made larger
Use of maps would have added to the presentation to show habitat.
