The Story of Aland

Aland was a curious, quiet, shy robot. It didn’t always say exactly what it felt, and it often felt uncomfortable speaking in front of people. Sometimes, it found it hard to find the words; sometimes, it found it difficult to make certain sounds; sometimes, it stammered.

One day, Aland was watching Robot TV and saw a robot just like it, so similar in many ways, standing up proudly at a podium and speaking out. The words and story were simple and clear and people were really listening. The TV robot spoke using words, facial expressions and hand gestures. People cared; the audience was clapping. Aland could imagine how wonderful that robot must feel, to be able to say what you want, when you want and how you want, in a way that makes people really hear you.

Aland had a story to share, and feelings, thoughts and amazing ideas to share too. Aland wondered, “What can I do about this?”

And so, a decision was made that day, a small decision that would make an enormous difference in Aland’s life.

E L P

M A S

The answer became clear ...

When we want to become a better musician, we learn the skills and practise.

When we want to become a better dancer, we learn the skills and practise.

Aland wanted to become a better speaker, so, BINGO! Aland decided to learn the skills and practise. Aland would go on a magical speaking journey and gather all the tools and techniques it could, put them in its tool box and take them out to use whenever it needed them. This would help Aland prepare for any and every speaking opportunity that would come its way.

Aland has become better and better at speaking up and speaking out. Now it’s time for Aland to play around with all the skills it has already gained and add more to its skill set.

Aland knew deep inside that it was Brave.

“LET’S GO, ALAND! LET’s Stand!”

SPEAKER’S STORY Start your journey by getting inspired by two amazing speakers and their life stories.

Read each story, and at the end complete the activity. You can also share the stories with your friends and family to help get you into that public speaking mindset!

Emma Watson

E L P

Actor and Activist

Emma Watson was born in 1990 in France but grew up in England. You probably know Emma from her famous role as Hermione in the Harry Potter films, but Emma does a lot more than just acting! Because she was only 9 when she was given the role of Hermione, Emma kept up her education, and she and the other young Harry Potter actors had a teacher come to the film set to teach them for five hours every day. When she was in ‘regular’ school, Emma loved poetry and was a member of the debating team.

M A S

Emma has always felt very strongly that boys and girls should be given equal opportunities in everything in life, and she has used her voice to speak out for those who may not be heard themselves. She feels especially strongly about education for girls and has travelled as far as places like India and Africa to speak about this.

Emma can also be heard speaking out about Fair Trade, which means that when a product (say, coffee or tea, for example) is produced in a developing country, the people working to produce it are treated fairly and paid a good wage for the work they do.

‘LET’s stand | Groundwork

“I’m willing to be seen.

I’m willing to speak up.

I’m willing to keep going.

I’m willing to listen to what others have to say.

I’m willing to go to bed each night at peace with myself.

I’m willing to be my biggest bestest most powerful self.”

She also believes that we should look at the clothes we wear and think about where they came from - things like who made them and how far they had to travel to get into our wardrobes!

SPEAKER’S STORY

Barack Obama The first African American President of the United States

E L P

Barack Obama was a fun-loving boy who was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in August 1961. His mother’s name was Stanley Ann and his father’s name was also Barack. His mother came from Kansas, and his father came from Kenya. In Swahili, the name Barack means “one who is blessed”.

M A S

Barack Obama grew up mainly in Hawaii and also spent some of his childhood in Indonesia after his parents divorced and his mother remarried a man from Indonesia. Barack later returned to Hawaii, where he was then raised by his grandparents.

A very good student and athlete, people in his high school called him “O’Bomber” because of his basketball skills.

Barack had a great flare for public speaking, which he practised throughout his school and university days. He studied at Columbia University in New York. When he graduated, he worked at a few different jobs, which included working as a market researcher, lecturer and community organiser at the ‘Developing Communities Project’ in Chicago. He loved working with people and using his voice to speak up about some of the important issues he saw around him in society. He decided he wanted to become a lawyer and went to Harvard Law School.

Barack married Michelle Robinson and together they have two daughters, Malia and Sasha. The world of politics called to him in 1996 when he was elected to the Illinois State Senate. He was elected to the United States Senate in 2004.

10

‘LET’s stand | Groundwork

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time.

We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

- Barack Obama

After three years of serving in the US Senate, Obama entered the 2008 presidential election. He had gained fame for being an excellent speaker and was very popular. Obama became the 44th President of the United States on January 20, 2009. He was re-elected in 2012.

E L P

M A S

In 2006, Obama won a Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Recording, and in October 2009, he beat 200 other nominations to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

“We are the change that we seek.”

- Barack Obama

Some of Barack’s hobbies include reading ‘Harry Potter’ books to his daughters and cooking chilli, and his favourite artist is Pablo Picasso.

ACTIVITY What does the name Barack mean in Swahili?

What do you think Obama means when he says, “We are the change we seek”?

PUBLIC SPEAKING is NOT new to me.

I already speak in public when:

I speak to my family and friends

I speak to people in the community

Tips for making a powerful PowerPoint presentation What is my message / main point?

Prepare a script  Plan: What is my message / main point? As the point of your slides is to illustrate what you are going to say, you should first write out what you want to say and then design the slides.  Prepare: Consider the structure, i.e. beginning, middle and ending.  Plan the order of the slides so that the audience can sometimes know and sometimes be surprised by what comes next.

What do I want to say for the Beginning

Middle 1.

Ending 3.

Beginning:

Middle:

E L P 1.

Design your PowerPoint  How many slides do you need? (Don’t have too many slides)  Bullet points, images or graphs, or a combination? Don’t use too many images.  Use a font like Arial, Helvetica, or Calibri for the main text as they are the easiest to read.  Put dark text on a light background. Align text left or right and avoid clutter.

One point at a time

2.

M A S

 Plan your presentation so just one new point is displayed at a time. Bullet points can be shown one at a time as you speak about them.

3.

Ending:

When you get comfortable with PowerPoint, break the rules and bring your own personality and individuality to your presentations.

Avoid large chunks of information.

Remember, your slides are the illustrations for your presentation, they are not the presentation itself. They should highlight what you’re saying as you give your presentation.

YOU are the presenter.

Remember YOU are in charge of the presentation.

You are using PowerPoint to make your presentation more interesting.

Quick tips for PowerPoint When you have researched your topic, ask yourself the following questions:  What do I want to say? / What’s my message / main point?  How will I divide it up into a beginning, middle and ending?  How many slides will I need?  How will I design the slides?  How do I plan to capture and hold the audience’s attention?
