    Segment 1: Why use student presentations in your classroom?
    • Students should learn to get good at (and enjoy) public speaking
    • Extremely powerful learning happens when you have to teach something to someone else
    • Good for task-based learning – students explain how to perform a skill – class watches and repeats
    • Good for classroom management – teach students to respect each other
    • Building student confidence
