Artifact 1 - Malawi Presentation
In Global Studies I completed a Malawi tribe PowerPoint presentation which required me to present the government and economy of the ancient Malawi kingdom. This was an opportunity for me to practice my Oral communication skill, because I had to present the information I found about my kingdom. Oral communication is the ability to communicate out to your peers clearly and effectively. While I did a good job with this skill because I presented all the information I found, I need to improve in the area of neutral stance. I can achieve this by doing speaking exercises and being more confident while I present. I can also be more prepared.
Artifact 2 - Job Interview Simulation
In introduction to business I completed a job interview project which required me to sit down with another one of my classmates and simulate and 1 on 1 interview with him. This was an opportunity for me to practice my Oral communication skill, as I had to communicate why I was perfect for the job face to face with my employer. I did a good job with this skill because I stayed calm and collected and showed signs of proper posture.I have improved in the area of reducing nervousness. I achieved this by practicing what I was going to say and being prepared while also conveying my thoughts on the side with confidence.
