For a degree it's the whole class. They want to see you can interact with the audience and maintain eye contact and be able to explain things in an easy, understandable format. Also they'll probably want you to take questions after. Know you're stuff really well before you go on and almost memorise the order as this will help clear the nerves (if you've got any) because you know you know your stuff inside out.

You're not alone! I feel that way about presentations, and so do many, many others. Some things to help boost your presentation are: * Proper research and preparation. Make sure you have your facts straight, and practice your presentation several times beforehand, out loud, so you don't stumble over or mispronounce any words. Try it by yourself and in front of a parent or friend. Make note cards if you have to. * Visual aids, if appropriate and feasible. These can include pictures/posters, stuff you write on the board, powerpoint presentations, etc. These may help hold the audience's interest and attention. * Confidence! If you've researched and practiced, then you know what you're talking about! Take deep breaths and a drink of water beforehand. Speak loudly, clearly and in an engaging tone (ie: don't mumble in a monotone). When you've practiced, you won't be 'umming' and 'ahing' a lot, or at all. You can even try walking around a bit, if appropriate (top presenters do this all the time). * Remember it's not the worst thing in the world, and you're probably too self-conscious! It'll be over in a few minutes, then it'll be someone else's turn. The audience probably aren't even making as big a deal out of it as you are. They might be tired, distracted by other issues going on in their lives, or just rude little shites. So what? Do your best, that's all anyone can ever ask of anyone else. I wish you the best of luck!

A presentation would not be a presentation without an audience.
Depending on the degree, yes you may have to; most Master levels often do require these.
A suggestion: take public speaking early on.

I did a bit of both. We had to do "mini lessons", with our classmates. They were basically a lesson we would do with a class only our peers were our students. It was really a lot of fun because most came up with some wonderful and exciting lessons. We also taped ourselves teaching during student teach and then watched it with a professor as they critiqued us (nerve racking).

You should first prepare what u want to tell in front of them. so to do that u should brainstorm on an piece of paper and write main points. and then make them like sentences. it always works for me.i think u can do much better than that. i don't really know because i am a 6Th grader
