This week, I completed a reflection on my speech, as well as providing critiques and positive feedback for my peers as they looked over their speeches as well. While I believe that I have grown in my presentation skills, I still have plenty of room for improvement before final presentation night. Our next speech will be a sort of draft of our speech for final presentation night, allowing us more time to rehearse and work out any problems with the presentation.
I have been spending time ensuring that my portfolio is up to date and organized, since it will be on display during the speech. It includes nearly everything I’ve worked on this school year, including my research assessments, interview assessments, topic proposal, mission statement, and quote. I think it’s exciting to see how my research is coming together already, even in this early stage of the school year, to form a single cohesive product.
As always, I have continued to work towards my final product, and I was fortunate enough to receive contact information for several child psychologists and defense attorneys from my mentor. I plan to contact these professionals soon to set up interviews about the impact of emotional abuse on an individual.
