August Reading Entry (M10)

As you have been informed, you are encouraged to read at least 15 minutes a day and then share your reading experience.

You can, for example, copy and paste the article you have read if it is an online article and include its link as well.

Or you can just share the link and write about how you have enjoyed the article.

If it's not an online article then cite the source, be it a newspaper or magazine article or a book et cetera. Make it easy for your friends to find and read whatever you've read. :)

Remember to always end or begin your comments with your name and matric number.

Thank you.

And the BEST PRESENTER is..... (M10)

SO, you've watched a whole load of clips on presentations and of presentations. Who would you say is the best presenter?
Randy Paunsch?
Ed Tate?
Doug Jeffrys?
Dick Hardt?
TJ Walker?
Or Microsoft dude? (Should he even be on the list?)

So what have you learnt from all you've watched? In groups, come up with your steps to being an EFFECTIVE PRESENTER using P.R.E.S.E.N.T. Is it the same as your first draft? If it's different, explain the changes made. If it's the same, explain why you've not made any changes.
