Penguin Posh Group Presentation

Wow so I'm glad that's over! We had our presentation in front of the class for our consulting project for Nordstrom and what a lot of work to jam into one week! Working together, knowing our stuff, practicing and keeping organized were really what pulled us through. It was great to use the strengths of our team to really make our project a cut above what any of us could have done alone. We were all really satisfied with our final result and felt confident in presenting to the class. I felt like a did a LOT better with maintaining eye contact and not fidgeting and I felt really good about how it turned out.

Online Group Meeting

So I actually preferred meeting online, I felt it was a little more focused and more productive. I am also a shy person, so I felt like it was a little less confrontational, too which is probably why I liked it better. However, that can be a good or a bad thing. I felt like we got the most work done together as everyone used the google doc to edit and produce our finished project and it made communication pretty easy as well.

Flip Charts and it's the WEEKEND!

So I had a presentation in MCOM this week using a flip chart. At first I was slightly baffled about using such an archaic form of presenting, especially to present on a website (my assignment was to report on asana). However, Iended up really enjoying the presentation. The only thing I wish I had done was practice a little more beforehand. I really noticed how presenting multiple times helped me get over my nervousness and overall improve my presentation. I also enjoyed using something so "unplugged" - without any technology. In the future I will be more open to using unusual forms of presentation and practice more ahead of time.
