Edouard Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Hi all, For the IOC, is there any effective way to revise? It seems to be an on-the-spot thing given its nature as an oral presentation, unlike a regular commentary, so how should one revise for it?Should I just do practice IOCs in the mirror, or is there a more effective way? Cheers! Edited June 10, 2014 by Edouard Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricketcrazynerd Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 For poems (if you're HL)/ Shakespearean soliloquies, I strongly suggest annotating every single piece and doing a practise IOC for all of them. Read through all the stories try to annotate significant points... do practise IOCs on pages that have a lot to talk aboutI've 'memorised' an introduction for each of my texts just to ensure that I start my commentary confidently....

MARemon Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Yeah, if you're HL go over every poem you studied in depth and make a thesis on each of them. I had Robert Frost poems for IOC and ended up with After Apple Picking which was good because I prepped for that one. Also trace significant motifs in the novels you're reading and tie in author's purpose. Good luck! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Marioti Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I practiced basically all outlines I had. I also recorded myself presenting it in order to listen and see where I missed things or where I had mistakes. I then also got my friends to listen It's a great way to practice, cause she you're just repeating you sometimes don't notice what you miss or how you're actually sounding.
