Day 7, October 25

About today (Oct.18) ....
The show and Tell presentations were excellent. I loved the baseball stories, the fashion, the things you bought, the things you found, and the love you shared. I loved all of it!
Keep up the good work and keep "pushing the envelope'!!


For October 25...
Bring 2 copies of your final TED5 script and be prepared to present your TED5!

Practice Practice, Practice!

This time, I will be asking you to comment on the presentations that others make. This means you will be busy watching and listening to your peers, as well as doing your own presentation.

... I'm very Excited!!!

DAY 6: October 18

OOPS!
I wrote this post last week after class but didn't post it! Sorry!!!

Today we had what seemed like a plethora of presentations. The last of the 10x10 presentations went well with good questions from the audience and feedback to the presenters. Then we had Show & Tell 2, which was very interesting. As I mentioned in class, my one criticism would be that they were longer than they needed to be and perhaps less exciting this time. Try and find ways to make everything you say in front of an audience exciting!

Great work today!
Cheers,
G

For our next class.... View the TED talk by Todd Rose; The Myth of Average.

Be prepared to answer the following questions:

1. What does the speaker want you to take away from this talk?
2. What tips can you take adopt from this talk and use in your own talk?
3. What is a "jagged profile"?
4. How does "average" affect students here at Gachon U?


Bring a completed, typed, and double spaced formal draft of your TED5. Be prepared to discuss your TED5 script with your group. Be prepared to give feedback to others in your group on their scripts.

Show & Tell-3: This time we will split the class into two groups. You will present your Show and Tell to only half of the class. After the presentations are done, you will tell the rest of the class what you saw and heard.

DAY 5: Octobert 11

Day 4 was 10x10 presentation day and it was a real treat to see new sides of each of you. You are a very interesting group of students and I am so very happy to have you all in this class. Cheers!

On October 11, we will start with the few remaining 10x10 presentations that we could not fit in on Oct.4. So far we have; 김재일, 김민혜,  and 윤준희.

NOTE: If you missed class on October 4, please post a comment here if you want to do your 10x10 on October 11.

Show and Tell - 2 presentations! 
Use this informal time to have some fun and practice your presentation "style"!


Watch TEDtalk: "We need to talk about injustice" by Bryan Stevenson (23:41)

Be prepared to discuss:
1. What does the speaker want you to take away from this talk?
2. What tips can you adopt from this talk and then use in your talk?
3. Bryan Stevenson said, "...each of us is more than the worst thing we have done." Be prepared to explain this statement.


Due October 11: 
Personal 1st Draft for TED5

Have a good weekend!
