    This is genuinely very clever and I’m amazed that the teacher came to the conclusion that this person didn’t prepare anything

      Delivery is everything. This is a great idea, but if the person was too socially awkward to nail the timing or tone, I could easily see how this idea could flop.

        I don’t know, the mere fact that each action was followed by a slide detailing that previous action should be more than enough to show effort. Even if it wasn’t received as funny, it is still provable as an attempt.

        I feel if he is brought to explain himself, it explains itself. It is just down to whether anyone can identify actual creativity in his school. Odds aren’t in his favor.

          The point is to get more comfortable talking in front of a crowd, and learning to present your ideas.

          This accomplishes none of that.

    This is comedy gold. I would have laughed. The teacher having no sense of humor I get, but the other students? WTF is wrong with them? Maybe the culture is too different now - at 45 now, I can confidently say that back in my day this would have gotten some solid laughter.
