For this module like any other we had a little crit, to show people what research we've been through and where our ideas are taking us. Just a little explanation about the process etc.
This one was actually videoed, and every single one of us got our videos at the end just so we can watch it and see what we look like when we're speaking to others. Where we can improve and all.
What I've noticed I do a lot is I walk around, and I talk with my hands a lot, I think it's stressing and I try to get rid of it that way. I touch my hair a lot etc. I also don't look at the audience as much as I should, again I believe it's because just standing in front of everyone puts this weird pressure on you. The reason why I think this is because I am still talking to my friends, a group of people I speak to more or less everyday... It's just a little intimidating. I remember about reading about the ways to hide it or get over it, and it's as simple as holding a pen in your hand, and you play with it anyway but it'll less noticeable than your hair for example.
So my aim of the game is to look less stressed out when I do my presentations.
