Presentations
There were two groups to present Intellectual Property Presentations this week. The presentations were extremely helpful for me as I am not familiar with IP and why it is important.
Interactive Architecture
Clear Presentation using Prezi. Nice use of images to clearly explain the issues and processes involved with IP. There was a lot of information as well, a lot of background knowledge of IP in the industry. I have added some points i learnt from the presentation which i did not know before. There was also great use of referencing
Geriambiance
The presentation was clearly stating IP within their project. The written presentation was clear but the design was not completly engaging as it was used in PowerPoint.
