Week 5: Enhancing my presentation skills

Although my classmates and I wrote an in-class reflective blog for this week's class, and our lecturer informed us that we don't necessarily have to post an online blog, I still felt the need to share some thoughts about something I learnt in today's class. After all, sitting in class writing a reflection between ten to fifteen minutes was not enough for me to truly gather my thoughts.

So here we go!

This week's class was based on enhancing our presentation skills. In doing so, each group were assigned to present the following wind systems.

Jet Streams

Desert Winds












Mountains- Anabatic and Katabatic Winds

Monsoon















Oral presentations have been a requirement for every single course at UTT thus far, so it was nothing new when we had to present for this week's class. Although I tend to get a bit nervous during presentations, I have realized that preparation and confidence is a key ingredient to a successful presentation. Therefore, for this week's presentation, my team members and I ensured that we were fully prepared and this resulted in an overall successful presentation. Ultimately, I enjoyed learning about these wind systems and I intend to do some extended research to find out more about it.  

Week six will be a mix!

  2. We were fluent and confident because we did our readings. That is very important in any presentation.

  3. In addition to what Seeta said, although we didn't do an actual rehearsal, we took the time to sit together as a group to compile the information for the presentation.
