My presentation...

So my presentation is done and over with...fInAlLy!!! My presentation was on Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream and their philosophy "You don't have to be a pro to make incredibly delicious ice cream".

Yesterday I seriously thought I was going to die from the anxiety. I know that I had no reason to worry, but I just hate getting up in front of people! I am SO glad it's over with. Now I can finally relax and study for the big anatomy test tomorow!

The girls in class are so nice and super supportive. They participated in my silly little games and asked questions which really took a lot of pressure away from me. The first minute was the worst and then from there it just kind of flowed and worked out. I was really nervous that I would constantly look down at my outline and just read from it word for word, but I don't think I ended up doing that very much. yay!

Overall I think I did a pretty good job considering the fact that I have an extreme phobia of public speaking. I hope the class enjoyed learning how to make ice cream! Maybe next time I won't be so scared...I doubt it!

Chelsea, Lisa, Amy & Tam did their presentations today too. They all did awesome! And the best part is I got free glitter toes out of it, thanks to Chelsea!

Presentations

Today 4 people in class did their presentations. I thought everyone did really well. I was worried that today would be boring because of the presentations, but I really was not bored at all.

The things that I thought people could have improved a little bit on:

• Rushing through the slides.
• Making the introductions a little bit more catching.
• Having more confidence in their knowledge of the subject. Everyone did great research and knew a lot about their topic, but a couple of people weren't confident in that and used their notes a lot (which I'm sure I will do too).

Things that I thought people did really well on:

• Everyone was very prepared and knew a lot about their topic.
• You could tell that everyone was passionate about their topic which made it more interesting and fun.
• I felt like everyone had a really good conclusion to their presentation.
• I liked how people had either videos or stories to make their presentation flow, and it was nice not to have it all just talking.
• When the audience had questions the speakers did really well at transitioning and answering their questions. That wouldn't have gone well if the speakers didn't know what they were talking about.
• They all had great visuals!

I really do think that everyone did a great job. You could totally tell that a lot of effort was put into each one of them. I'm so nervous for mine!
