This morning we arrived in Lethbridge at about noon (after an exciting photo opportunity in Vulcan!). After lunch, the workshop started with a presentation skills workshop. We learned a lot of tips such as how to prepare yourself, how to deal with nerves, how to orient yourself to the screen and the audience, etc. We split up into our teams and created a mini introduction to our project and then we choose one team member (Mandy) to present it. This presentation was videotaped and then the whole group had a chance to talk about it, give feedback, etc. After this, we went and refined these presentations and gave someone else on the team a chance to present (Jamie) and we repeated the same process. This was really helpful as it helped us see some of things that our fellow teammates do well as well as some things that they could improve on.
