I needed to be able to get across my research
to people who didn't have a science background so I had to find
new words, and a more efficent way to get my point across.

The Student Academic Conference forced me to
become better prepared for public speaking, due to the perceived
higher standard of speaking in the company of other student
academics. |

I think I do very well making the lay person
understand what I am talking about ( making sure that others
understand everything is very important when speaking to a crowd
that might not know anyhting about what you are talking about).

I found how hard it is to interpret to the
publicinto terms the topic which I know so much about. It gave
me a better understanding of what information was important to
the general public. |

I felt more comfortable after giving the
speech, because I knew the topic well and I think I did well.

As I said before, two days before the
conference I was more disorganized than I thought, but for some
reason, during the conference, I pulled it together. Some of the
written in remarks I recieved included compliments on my
delivery and clarity, so of co |

I believe my clarity in public speaking
remained at the same level. Of course practice makes perfect, so
there was probably some increase in clarity, but nothing that I
noticed. |

It required more preparation on my part than
most other presentations I have given. Therefore, I feel I was

I used power point, which I haven't had a lot
of experience with, so I had a little more practice with it. It
helped to keep my presentation organized and easy for my
audience to understand. |
