City Connections Powerpoint

In me humanities class we have been making our city connections. This is where you write about where you write about a place that you have been to and write about its historical, statistical and environmental factors. I believe that I did very well. These are afew things that I think I was really good at. I had a clear voice and I was lound enough that everyone could hear me. I think that I had a lot of information.

One thing that I think I need to improve on is having good eye contact. I looked at a few people but I didn't look at everyone. It is important to memorize mostly everything because then you can look around at the audience. Everyone can hear you much better because you will be facing more at them and not the screen so you can read it off there. Another thing I need to work on is to not fiddle or shake and move around a lot because then I won't sound so shakey and people can focus on the presentation and not me fiddling around. I should probably bring note cards next time because then I wouldn't be reading off of the screen and reading the large list of facts in front of them.

I learned a lot from my information as well as the class did. I knew a few things but, then while I was reaserching about it, I could learn a lot more things. I learned how many people are in my home contry and how many people are male and female. I also learned a lot about the enviroment like that the city was built on a swamp and that the district has three natural flowing bodies of water, the Patomac River and two tributaries, the Anacostia River and Rock Creek. I also learned many historical factors about it.

I personally think that I did a great job on my overall preformance. I had a lound voice, I had a lot of information and maps, I didn't have very good eye contact but I still looked at a few people, I had a clear voice and I didn't really fiddle too much. I do think that I did a good job but next time there are a few things that I need to add to make it a bit better and stop reading off of the screen.
