TOK Presentation - Common Sense

Some observations: the presentation engages the attention of the audience. There are several real life examples. The knowledge issue is clear - how common is common sense? There are some TOK terms used, notably claims and counter-claims. I liked the clear reference to personal bias. I liked the friendly tone of the speaker. I liked the opening with a personal knower's perspective based on a real life situation, the sign on the toilet.
What was missing? More explicit references to Areas of Knowledge and Ways of Knowing.
What was the best point for me in this presentation? Clear logical sequence of ideas, the structure was strong and logical and the humour generally worked both in the tone of voice and in the slides.
