Hello!
How are you? Here are all the notes for both the ASE and AE2Y I classes today on 6/18. The notes above are for all of you who are in the ASE I class.
As all of you in the AE2Y class can see, the notes for the class aren't so different, though you are doing a different theme with different topics from it. Here they are:

Final tips for presentations displays (ASE & AE2Y I)
As I mentioned to all of you in class today, here are two (2) important things I would like all of you to try for in the design and writing on your displays:
1. Cut out as many of the grammar words as you can in your text writing for your displays (such as be-verbs, articles [the, a, an], or even prepositions [such as on, in, over, under, and so on] and connectors [like and or then]).
The lexical words - especially nouns (名詞) - are the ones that carry the most meaning, and that you can best speak the most from. These are the kinds of words you should have on your displays.
Your written text should be as short and to the point as possible - key words and key phrases, and whenever possible, one line of text for any bulleted point - at most, two lines.
The purpose of keeping your written text as short as possible is to push you to speak about your topic instead of reading from notes, or reading from your display.
2. When showing any text with visual content (such as photographs, illustrations, diagrams, schema, charts, models, and so on) - write only keywords and key phrases to go with it. Do not let the writing compete with the picture! The picture - whatever kind it is - should be the more important thing.
Whenever you can, only show the visual content with no text - especially if it is very powerful and interesting in itself. There is an expression in English - "every picture tells a story." If the picture - whatever kind it is - can stand alone to show exactly what you want to point out within your presentation, then let it stand alone so you can talk about it.
