The Time Traveler Project...


Just like everyone else, I had the pleasure of watching myself present my time traveler project to the class via Youtube. Needless to say, the only thing I could think about were things that were wrong about the presentation. Interesting enough, however, the same day the videos were up and ready to be viewed, one of my coaches told our team that it was important to not only recognize what we need to improve, but also what we did right whether it be in a game or at practice. Picking out the negative things is always easier than the positive, but in order to keep improving in any area, we must also acknowledge the positive aspects as well.

Using what my coach told me and noticing not only the negative but also the positive, I decided to start off with the things I need to work on and ending with the things I did well while presenting. In terms of things I should work on for the next presentation, editing out words such as “umm” and “like” are my main goal. Also, working on not making faces when I am trying to figure out what Carty was saying (whoops). At any rate, I think that my eye contact and “animation” were pretty good. Although, I could work on looking into the audience rather than at the wall. Also, my voice didn’t sound as terrible as I thought it would…which is also a positive thing.
