So far I feel I have been pretty successful. I have a few more sources to find but I feel pretty good about it so far. However, I am having problems with the presentation aspect of it. I am not a good public speaker and get extreme anxiety when presenting. I am extremely nervous for the oral presentation and I am scared I am going to get a bad grade because of it, no matter how prepared I feel.
Luckily, I have no other research projects going on now or for the rest fo the semester. I am fortunate because I am already taking a heavy class load and the two research projects for this class is plenty! They have become a lot more work than I thought I would.
Hi Morgan,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post, and sharing your concerns about presenting. I also suffer from performance anxiety. If you are interested, we could meet to discuss strategies as to how to practice for the presentation.
If you would like to work on presentation strategies with someone else on campus, you could contact the Communication Studies Department or Communication Sciences & Disorders to find out if either department provides resources for students who need to do oral presentations.
It looks like you are on the presentation schedule for April 17th.
Sincerely,
Professor Wexelbaum
