Experiencing Group

First of all, I would like to start off my saying that I honestly enjoyed working with my group, all of us were constantly on the same page, we all had very creative ideas, we all worked well together, which resulted in a very successful presentation! (If I do say so myself, haha!)

Now, all of the other groups had great presentations....but in any project, there were certain things that I noticed some people needed to work on to enhance their presentation. 

(These are just my own personal thoughts and opinions)

1. Always speak to your audience! Not towards the wall, not towards your peers in the presentation, not the floor, and not just the teacher. Remember, opening your body up (ie: standing with good posture, facing the room) will enhance your speaking voice as well as aid you in "owning" the room.

2. Please, please please PRACTICE your presentation. Or at least make sure you KNOW the information that you are presenting. The better acquainted you are with the main objective of the presentation, the better informed your audience will be! 

3. This was mentioned in class, but make sure that your voice tone is appropriate for the presentation. Don't be so comfortable with your stage presence that you're speaking as if it were a normal conversation with a classmate. On the other hand, don't be so nervous that you can barely speak...it's OKAY, we all have to present!

4. These are just "no-no's"...

No gum.

No "umm".

No "you know?"

No fidgeting.

No looking aimlessly around/at the floor/etc.

No slacking (it's a group presentation, meaning, work WITH your group!)

All in all, I think our whole class did a really great job, and I personally thought it was a fun experience. I usually like to be in charge, I have A-type personality :) but it was honestly a fun time and I was very proud of our work! Thanks to all of my group members! And congratulations to the rest of the class!!
