John Bohannon: Dance vs. powerpoint, a modest proposal


Lavelle Mitchell
Thesis



✤   In Mr. Bohannon’s presentation he proposed that maybe instead of
    wasting time doing power points that we should start using the arts
    to explain difficult information more specifically, dance.
Thesis




✤   To prove how his thesis would work he used dancers through out his
    presentation.
You caught my attention!




✤   The speaker did an amazing job at catching not just mine, but I
    believe the whole audiences attention by using dancers.
You caught my attention!




✤   It may seem that having dancers in the background would distract
    you from the main point, but he was using them to his advantage.
The “Ted” Commandments



✤   John Bohannon’s speech followed commandment number 4 the best:

    Thou Shalt Tell a Story
The “Ted” Commandments




✤   Throughout his speech John used a story about a friend of his to
    captivate the audience and get his point across.
DYNAMISM




✤   I would give John Bohannon a 4 in dynamism
DYNAMISM




✤   He did a great job at catching everyones attention, but he needed to
    give more energy he kind of remained stagnant.
What Have I learned From Him?




✤   John Bohannon has taught me to think more outside of the box.
What Have I learned From Him?




✤   Being different and creative is a great way to capture the attention of
    your audience.
What Have I learned From Him?




✤   Being unique also will make people listen. Especially if it’s something
    they have never seen or heard before.
Sir Ken Robinson vs. John
                 Bohannon



✤   One thing that Sir Ken Robinson had that John bohannon did not was
    that he engaged his audience more he made them interested by
    making them laugh.
Sir Ken Robinson vs. John
                Bohannon



✤   John Bohannon’s speech had a lot more movement and things going
    on to catch the audiences attention.
Tips



✤   From what I have seen in the TED talk that I watched I believe that
    when it comes to speeches doing more than what is asked can be
    beneficial.
Tips



✤   Doing things outside of the box can get people to listen and it sticks
    with them a lot more than having to watch a person give a speech
    while sitting or standing in one place.
