My presentation was not all I hoped it would be. Unfortunately there were very few things I liked about my presentation. One strength I did note was that I seemed calm and confident. I spoke clearly and articulated the points I wanted to make. Watching myself teach was a true eye opener.
I noticed throughout the presentation that my voice changed. I started off very bubbly and enthusiastic and by the end my voice was calm and almost normal. I also used a lot of hand gestures when describing things. Some of my gestures made sense and added to the presentation. However, others were very distracting. I fidget and move around a lot. I also stumbled over several figures and words throughout the presentation.
Although it was necessary to read some things directly from the PowerPoint, I do think I spent too much time looking at the screen. This is defiantly something I plan on doing again. Being evaluated and told the things I need to change differently is not as effective as witnessing them myself.
You can view my video, it did not turn out the way I had hoped and I was rather disappointed. However, I enjoyed the project and thought evaluating myself was a very valuable experience. If you would like to view my Excel spread sheet or my research write-up click on the links!
