Reflection Paper On Contact

Using some simple time management skills can give the student the ability to complete tasks without feeling overwhelmed. Insufficient communication between myself and the school also crippled my studies. Over this course, I’ve learned to excel as a student the importance of new time management skills. The transition although stressful is exciting and eye opening. It's a completely different experience versus the typical college classes I was involved in when I enrolled in traditional college after high school. I will admit I am disappointed in myself this course for falling behind, being side tracked I’m unsure how far behind I’ve become. There’s one thing this has taught me and that’s discipline with my schedule because I find it's easy to get

Whenever an assignment was given, I used to just write everything that I could think of, similar to a free write. After doing a free write in my scrap notebook, I would then go back and insert examples from the text to further prove my points. After taking this class, I learned that is the incorrect way to write academic papers and that the best way is to make an outline instead so that I can make sure that every point is proven, clear, accurate, and most importantly understandable. I was able to see the improvement of how outlines helped through my first essay. The essay was about picking out an image and explaining its means to the visual context and its impact on culture. My first draft I had learned that I needed to step back and see

I know that my weak spot is time management but I am always looking and thinking of ways to help. I try to do my work as soon as it is assigned. To help improve my time management skills I have set

Also, there were some difficulties that came about during my speech, one of those difficulties being inadequate direct eye contact. During the length of the speech there were not many time where I looked up and talked directly to my classmates. Something I could have done better to improve this would be to practice even more to ensure that I wouldn’t need to look at my notecards and slides as often. I also could have practiced when to look up and have a successful glance at my audience to have improved eye contact.

During the speech, I was also a good speaker in many ways. I had a good voice projection, my hand moment was consistent, I was always facing the audience and held eye contact, and had facial expressions to emphasize the importance of a topic. Right off the bat when I was explaining my citation saying According to the U.S Census Bureau “there are alone 5.7% Asian’s in the United States,” I was pointing my hands to make sure everyone was paying attention to the numbers. Another thing I did well during the speech was, that I kept eye contact with everyone during the speech

1. What did you did well? Why do you think you did well on these aspects of your speech? Elaborate.

I have given quite a few speeches in the last few years, even at such a young age. Though I was proficient when I started this class, I have improved even more in these last six weeks. My strengths definitely fall in my organization and content. However in my delivery I often lack in vocal variety and volume, mostly due to nerves, and I often rushing my conclusions. Due to the rank I have in organizations like the National Honor Society, I will often have to speak in public or address my peers so I plan on continuing to practice for my speeches out loud and hopefully I will improve.

My work ethic is one of my stronger points due to my time management skills. Being busy most of the time between play, musical, school softball, summer softball, choirs, and school work has taught me how to manage my time without procrastination. I always make a list of what needs to be done and when it needs to be done by. I start with the most urgent matters and move on from there getting to the least urgent matters last. I try my very hardest to always get work in on time. If there ever does end up being a conflict such as a show prohibiting me from finishing my work adequately, I always try to talk to the teacher before the assignment

In this speech, i spoke about a topic that i was apathetic towards though, surprisingly i still came across very extemporaneous and passionate. This is because my strong suits are my speaking tone and/or style and my non-verbal communication skills. I excelled in eye contact and being comfortable in front of the audience. I would like to say this may be a false sense of accomplishment though, since I've been with this class an entire semester, I've naturally grown comfortable around them. This would allow anyone, including myself, to be more confident and at home while speaking.

My accelerated experience in the classroom required me to develop and mature in several ways. First, I developed a strong work ethic and sense of discipline by taking on a rigorous class schedule. Another character trait I developed through keeping up with my class schedule is an impeccable sense of organization. A final trait that

After managing my issues, I needed to work on how to manage my time. Since elementary school, I struggled at managing my time. I would usually finish all my homework after midnight. As a result, I would either sleep in class or come to school late. My family was frustrated about this and did not want me making school harder for myself, so they taught me ways to manage my time. As a result, I managed to learn how to manage my time.

I am one of those who suffer from butterflies, that uncomfortable feeling in my chest and stomach, before speaking in public. This is not only a problem for myself, but it is also a common fear and a concern for many people. My purpose is to denounce a few dynamics I feel have helped me to become a more effective speaker and to manage my butterflies. I will prove to you that strong body language makes ideas and feelings more clear, vigorous and engaging. First, I will show how eye contact unconsciously engages the audience. Second, I will prove that vocal emphasis is the key to a vigorous speech. Third, I will confirm that gestures reinforce the ideas of the speech, making the speech

Obviously, speeches are scary for anyone who hates public speaking. I happen to be one of those people; I get terribly nervous see all the faces staring at me. I am nervous about that sort of stuff, but I’m trying to get over it. Honestly, I think it was a great thing that I was able to get this speech out of the way. Once I get through doing something like this, I tend to get a lot more comfortable afterwards with my classmates. Doing these speeches even when I don’t want to is definitely a pro; it prepares me for the real world. I really liked the topic I presented. I felt that when I did this speech it was much better than the last one. I believe this happened because the topic was something I have done before and am very

Have you ever had an essay due in three weeks and thought to yourself, “I’ve got time. I’ll just do it later”? Does staying up studying for an exam until 3 am in the morning sound familiar? How about running to class because you were working on a project until the very last second? If any of these unfortunate situations sound relatively familiar, you have endured the horrendous event of procrastination at some point of your jam-packed life. The one secret that nobody is enforcing on your young life is the extreme power of time management. In Chapter 5, the topics we address are as follows:

(Technique 1: transitions) The process of writing is not so simple. It takes a lot of effort to bring thoughts from one’s mind to the physical plane that is a piece of paper. One of the more difficult parts to writing is being able to transition from one idea to another. Without proper transitions, writing is just bits and pieces being forced together instead of many thoughts flowing seamlessly from one to another into one conglomerate piece.
