My Project

Public Speaking

I think that being a good public speaker is knowing your audience. If people say something that the audience doesn’t like it’s most likely not going to be a good speech. To be a good audience I think the number one thing is listening. If you don’t listen it’s the extremely disrespectful. The other thing with being a good audience member is having good body language. If the audience is acting like they don’t want to be there then the speaker is not going to try as hard as they can.

Collaborating Core Competency Reflection

One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to talk and give each person in the group a chance to agree or disagree with what we’re doing.

I know the group is working well together when I hear us all agreeing on something and sharing different ideas.

I show that I value feedback from others in my group by listening to it and in some cases using it in projects.

If there is a disagreement within the group, I find it helpful to talk about something else and then go back to what we were disagreeing about and then try to deal with it again.

My goal is to be more clear about who is doing what within the group. I’m doing this by whenever I start a group project going over what needs to be done and then splitting the work.
