I was very pleased with how Brethren presented chapter 8 today in class. It was far from perfect, but I think all of us learned so much. We practiced and practiced and practiced. We had our time cut down to where we still had 15 seconds to spare; however, come time to present, we went over a little. I know I got a little nervous and added just a little bit more to my portion of the presentation.
I also noticed that we were all so focused that we forgot to smile and have fun with it. While we're trying to be professional, it's important that we also make sure we have fun and smile. It's much easier to listen to someone who is happy, energetic, and smiley. That's going to be one of my biggest focuses as I move forward and work on presentation skill.
Another thing I noticed is that I like to hold my hands together in front of me. I actually had no idea I was doing this during the presentation until I watched it after and saw the comments on it. I feel like practice is going to be the best way to solve that problem.
Overall, I felt the presentation accomplished what it was supposed to accomplish; learning. I know that every time I present from here on out I'll learn more and more things. This was a great opportunity.
You guys had an awesome presentation. I thought it was super professional looking :) I also noticed that I a couple things that I had no idea I was doing. Also, I didn't do a couple things that I should have; like smile!
