My Reflections from Presenting
It felt good to present in front of a group again. I always enjoy the aspect of being "on stage." I also enjoy the feeling of seeing a well constructed presentation run smoothly without major glitches.
I enjoyed playing around with the aspect of the built in Q and A of Google Slides and I think that several others also enjoyed seeing how this feature played out in classroom environment. Obviously, it is something I can continue to play around with and fine tune some rules and expectations for using it, but I enjoyed the idea of encouraging interaction between students.
I also think my hands-on activity of creating a story through a string of random emojis was a good way to explore a starting point to creative fictional writing. Even though some students (like the teachers in class today) were able to immediately spout off a story just from looking at a string of emojis, I gained confidence that this exercise paired with my explanation and discussion of the 6 C's of Storytelling would work well to aid reluctant students to give voice and creativity to their stories.
