Part 1: Presentation
In this paragraph I will analyze my personal results from the proposal presentation. During the presentation I hardly ever made eye contact and was kind of looking at the side of the room. I definitely think if I had made more eye contact that the audience would have been more engaged. Also, I think that facing the audience would have made it easier for them to understand me a bit better. I also stumbled over some words so maybe if I would've rehearsed a few more times I would not have stumbled so often. Along with fixing the stumbling, I think rehearsing would have helped me use stronger words, which would have created more meaning to the presentation. Although I think some of these things are derived from nerves, I think some could have been prevented with more preparation and practice. Overall, I think that I my presentation was acceptable even though there could have been some improvements made.
Part 2: Reflection
This paragraph will explain my thoughts on the LAMP group project including what is going well, what needs some improvements, and what my expectations are at the end. Overall, I think that our group project is going really well. For the most part I feel that all members of the group are contributing and coming prepared to group meetings, which makes our project come together smoothly. Along with contributing and coming prepared, I also feel that each member communicates very well with the other group members and with our community partner. However, I am very anxious about what exactly our community partner wants. Although I know our efforts will be appreciated no matter what we do, I am worried that we will not be able to deliver exactly what is needed. But on the other hand, I am also anxiously excited to help LAMP in whatever way that I can. In that regard, I cannot wait to see what the final project holds. These last few weeks will be exciting as we meet with Rachel Watson, divvy out the project, and work hard to finish our final product. I think that these last few weeks will be very fulfilling if we work hard during every group meeting as well as on our assigned duties. In the grand scheme of things, I think that everything is going well and will continue to do so as the semester comes to an end!
