Week 7 - Long Few Days

Part One

So our video planning this week was relatively uneventful since we accidentally did it last week. But like most things with this group, we decided quickly and efficiently. Our topic of choice is Cloud Computing and it's business implications. We figured this would be an interesting topic not just for those with an extensive technical background, but also a person with a more limited understanding of programming and technology in general

Part Two

Watching the presenters on those TED talks is an invaluable asset to anybody who wishes to improve their ability to give a presentation. I personally consider myself to be pretty good at this. I generally do not get all that nervous unless my jokes start to bomb so I already have a leg up on most people. One thing in particular I noticed and enjoy when watching a presentation is when the speaker is slightly less formal. I like to watch presentations that are more like conversations rather an information transferring from a detached authority figure to the rest of us rubes. It helps keep the presentation interesting and overall audience engagement.
