So what if there is an app for that?

The video posted is an edited version of the 20 minute course presentation for Strategies in Health Education Delivery. The lecture is adapted from the lesson plan found under the same titled tab. Our assignment is to write about how we felt about our presentation.
I have never viewed a presentation I have delivered, as a result this was a valuable exercise for me. The topic and material presented, appeared to be well received and timely for the audience. I was pleased with the powerpoint in terms of visual graphics. I recognize that I stumbled a bit in my language which I attribute to adapting a 90 minute lecture down to 20 minutes, and of course a bit of normal anxiety.
With regard to my presentation style, I see that I use my hands a lot! This movement seems to be a bit distracting. For 20+ years I have led psychotherapy and psycho-educational groups and presented many lectures while teaching graduate school. I now see that my style of presenting is relaxed as if I am leading a group. I believe I may need to change that style for a more professional countenance. Although, a relaxed presentation will more than likely result in a more effective outcome, nonetheless I could use some "tightening up".
Hi DeAn,
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job on your presentation. I was not distracted by your hand movements. But, I also tend to use my hands a lot when talking.

Thanks Tina, I appreciate your comment. I suppose we all can be self critical! It's an interesting process to watch yourself.
DeleteWe are ALWAYS more critical on ourselves! You did great! It had been a long time since I viewed one of my teachings and this exercise made me realize I need to more often. Your relaxed style is very effective as you make the audience comfortable, thus making them feel at ease in communicating with you.
