Public speaking

I have learnt many things about public speaking this term. For example, when you are trying to get your audience’s attention you have to make what you are saying interesting or else, they will stop paying attention and stare off into space. When people are Presenting you have to be a good audience member by paying attention or at least looking like it, staying quite until the end of the presentation at which you should give some kind or supportive words. If you want to get people’s attention while you speak, I find it helps if you look confident and make sure your words are loud and clear. I have picked up a few things about public speaking over this term in English 9.

Collaboration Core competency Reflection

I show others that I truly value their contributions by listening to their ideas and using them in the project to improve it and make it better.

Some things I think about before dividing tasks among group members include, I think about how much work my teammates are capable of doing and, is the amount of work given fair.

I show that I value feedback from others in my group by listening to them and changing my ideas to suit their feedback.

I know the group is working well together when I see new ideas being created and active work being done. I also know when I hear people effectively communicating with each other.

My goal

I can feel comfortable when speaking in front of people I don’t know.

I want to be able to do this so that I can speak well in front of groups I need to talk to.

Persuasion and Advertisement Techniques

Persuasion and Advertisement Unit

it is important to remember who benefits from the advertisement when you view an advertisement, because you have to know that you are making your own chose and not the company’s reasons you have to remember by buying their product, they are benefitting more then you..

one of the types of advertisement is logical reasoning. It includes proven facts charts and statistics. It is affective because people cannot deny cold hard facts and reasoning’s if you have a lot of research, you will have no problem convincing an audience.

Card staking is an effective strategy in advertising. It is effective because you hide all the bad facts behind the good ones, while it is not hard to see past it with a small amount of critical thinking people who glaze over add are sure to be persuaded.

Core Competency Reflection

I used to think that ads were created by mindless zombies and now I know they are really smart and cunning people because, there are many types of ways to advertise a product but only a few effective ways. If you’re too subtle they won’t notice if you’re too obvious they will know you tried to manipulate them.

One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was really thinking about what the capitol citizens would buy and how to get them to buy it. I enjoyed the time I had created my product and then letting my thoughts spiral down the different possibility’s.

An example of where I built upon someone else’s ideas is when I was shown an example of how someone had marketed a product and I decided to do the same thing but a bit different. I feel that the strategi was effective and will work well.
