Making An Appearance

This week we did a gallery walk for our presentation boards on our topic. Some challenges I faced was actually making people engaged in my board and having them interested to ask question. I also had a lot of words on my board that I didn't get the time to address.

Ways that I was successful was that when people did come, I was able to explain jargon from my topic and allow people who don't really understand my topic, to easily follow the background of my topic, my original work, and my main goal for my topic. 

Ways that I can improve myself would be talking to my teachers about my topic. I think it is easier to talk to people my own age. However, I was able to make them interested in my topic. I also need to improve on the pacing of my presentation because I either talked for too short, leaving the audience to be a bit lost, or I talked for too long, leaving the audience to start to feel bored listening to me. 

I also heard a lot of interesting questions that I want to further research like ways neurons can be affected differently at different ages due to diabetes.
