 PRESENTATION
 1. Was there a clear introduction, which ex-
 plained the purpose and the procedures of the
 occasion?

 2. Did I give sufficient opportunity at the begin-
 ning for the farmers to reveal their own
 knowledge of the topic, and identify issues of
 concern to them?

 3. Was I able to build effectively on the informa-
 tion gained from this preliminary discussion?

 4. Did I perform operations slowly and emphati-
 cally enough for them to be understood and
 applied by the farmers?

 5. Was it a full demonstration-all key points
 stressed and any misunderstandings cleared
 up?

 6. Did I take care to use language which was
 non-technical enough to be understood by the
 farmers?

 farm activity?

 nation given as to why they were important?

 9. Were the visual aids clear and appropriate?
