Woyzeck Presentation

What is the product?

     My product is a Prezi. I decided to do this over a powerpoint because i felt it is more fun to present and watch because its different. For my presentation I decided to focus my attention on the medical side of Franz' situation. The topics I covered are the hospitals, how patients were treated, advancements in medicine, and the doctors and their jobs.

How were the product and idea for the product developed?

     I came up with the idea for the product pretty much right away. I felt that being a health sciences major that using the medical side of the movie would it would pertain to my major.  I focused on medicine of the time period rather than in the movie alone.  I once again chose to do them in a Prezi just for something different. My presentation focus heavily on medicine in the past compared to modern medicine, rather than in just the movie alone.

Why was this specific manner of presentation chosen?
     I chose to do my presentation like this so that it actually pertains to my major. It was pretty easy making this topic relate to the medical world.  I also found it useful to use a Prezi because of its versatility.  The topics i chose are all very relevant throughout the movie, but aren't focused on or really explained very well.

I'm looking forward to your Prezi. I always enjoy seeing them, particularly because I'm not good with them. I'm especially looking forward to your presentation on the treatment of patients, as my case report handled that as well

I am looking forward seeing your presentation since I never heard of Prezi and I also want to learn about the medicine in the past compared to that of the modern times.

I look forward to learning about medicine and medical practices that took place in the time in which the play was set. I think the product is a great representation of your academic focus, and it will further your independent education about medicine in general, as well as ours!

To be honest, I don't really know much about medicine in the past, and I'm eager to learn about it. Hopefully it'll go with what sophie showed us in her presentation.

I don't know too much about Prezi, but I'd like to know more. Sounds like a pretty useful tool. I'm looking forward to your presentation and to hear about some dated medical practices!

I'm interested to hear about historical medicine any time, but this in particular should be interesting because I want to know whether the medical behavior in Woyzeck was at all accurate. Also, Prezis are pretty cool so that should spice up the day's class schedule. :)

Never seen Prezi before, it looks interesting! I also like that you focus more on the medical aspect of the film as it is always nice to hear about what people are passionate about.

I'm looking forward to your Prezi (they're so flashy!) and also a historical look at hospitals and treatments and whatnot. Good luck!

This is perfect for a health science major! It's important to know how far medicine has come if you plan on making a career out of it! I still don't know what a Prezi is...

Drew,
your prezi looks extremely interesting! I can't wait to hear about patient treatment during the time period of your film. It's honestly fascinating to me to study the evolution of patient care, not only in the United States, but across the world. Your presentation definitely addresses this, and I'm excited to see what you have to say!
