I’m really glad we were given the opportunity to watch it. Thanks professor Gleason! ;-) https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640211 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640211 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:32:28 -0500 “As you sing before him, don’t you worry. You’ll be good enough.” I thought that was an absolutely beautiful way to tie together his speech. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640209 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640209 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:32:28 -0500 I love how he added in clips of her acting and singing. It really added to the emotion of his speech as well as highlighted how incredibly talented she truly was. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640197 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640197 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:32:27 -0500 I love how he immediately started making connections to both Whitney as well as the community of people that were a part of her life. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640160 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283224?scroll_to=2640160 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:32:26 -0500 I agree Ian, she did this several times in her speech and she does it really well! I was so impressed with her speech. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629471 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629471 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 09:15:25 -0500 I think she makes great use of body language. In this segment she’s using her hands/fingers to help people visualize what she’s saying. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629435 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629435 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 09:12:45 -0500 She seamlessly corrects herself as she stumbles on a word and continues on without skipping a beat. It was almost unnoticeable. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629410 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629410 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 09:18:11 -0500 I love her confidence! She carries it on to the stage with her and it can be felt before she even speaks. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629394 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283223?scroll_to=2629394 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 09:06:42 -0500 I agree. Giving the audience additional resources such as she did allows people to gather more info should they feel they want to expand on what they just learned in a quick demo tutorial. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597605 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597605 Wed, 13 Oct 2021 09:09:14 -0400 I feel like she could have added in the importance of why you need to connect that last cable to something metal. That bit of info could be helpful to some. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597588 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597588 Wed, 13 Oct 2021 09:08:26 -0400 I agree, I think this was a great thing to share as well as some may not have that information. Very thoughtful. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597579 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283105?scroll_to=2597579 Wed, 13 Oct 2021 09:03:53 -0400 Yes, failure is one of our greatest teachers. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577427 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577427 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:58:41 -0500 Opening up our body and remembering to breath is a great tip. We want to appear relaxed and at ease when we speak and we can’t do that with our shoulders up toward our ears and tense with fear. https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577420 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577420 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:58:41 -0500 Yes, fear of being judged is certainly at the core of it! https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577404 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577404 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 21:58:41 -0500 What she said about really loving public speaking but still experiencing a fear with it really resonated with me. Does anyone else here feel that way? https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577389 https://nowcomment.com/documents/283095?scroll_to=2577389 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 22:04:11 -0500
