Blog 11: Lesson 1 Reflection




1. What are you most proud of in your lesson, and why?
  • I'm proud that I came across as energetic and entertaining to my audience while presenting, I made what could have been a boring generic presentation into 9 minutes of enjoyment. I had anxiety throughout the duration of my waiting period, when I went up to present I immediately kicked into presentation mode and overcame that anxiety, that was a relief for me. 
2. What assessment would you give yourself on your lesson? Explain why you earned that grade using evidence from the component contract.

  • I'd give myself a solid P, reason why is that I believe I fit all the necessary requirements. I had multiple sources to back up my claims and provide insight into my topic, I also gave a real life scenario for almost every point I made to show validity. Eye contact was fair along with voice projection, everyone told me they heard me loud and clear after the presentation, so I believe voice projection was met to an acceptable standard. Lastly I did demonstrate quite a bit of research in my content, it was clear that what I had learned was the culmination of 3 months of research.   

3. If you could go back, what would you change about your lesson?  How can you use that knowledge to give a better Lesson 2?

  • Additions I would make would be going more into depth about my mentor, also elaborating more on what not to do in business rather then spending a huge chunk focusing on real life scenarios, that's my opinion. Next lesson I plan to go more into depth on my topic itself, business entrepreneurship, instead of talking about business failure I want to address the importance of business in the United States.
