Personal Goals
1. Preparation/rehersal
I want to find the images/pictures to put in the power point in order to get an idea of what I might say. Secondly, I will decide what to talk about. Thirdly, I will write dowm in simple words what I want to say in the presentation. Then, I will look for specific photos that support my ideas. After I have finished creating my power point, I will practice as much as I can before class. I will stand up and practice in front of the mirror.

2.Content/Overall impression
I want to tell the audience that I love samba and the reasons for it. There are three main reasons and I would like to explain them in a way that would be easy for everyone to understand. As for overall impression, I would like everyone to get a more detailed idea of what samba is and to know that I really really like it.

3.Voice
I want to make sure most importantly that I speak so everyone can hear me. I want to speak clearly, not too quiet, not too loud. I want to speak slowly, but not too slowly. I also want to put more emotion in my voice because it always sounds monotone and boring. I might be able to do that by taking pauses after each sentence and before something important.

4.Body language
I want to use it as a support of my presentation, not as something that disturbs the audience. In order to do that, I think I should use my hands in a natural way that connects to the content of the presentation. I also tend to not use my hands and have them behind my back when I am nervous, so I would like to avoid that.

5.Visuals
I want to make sure the visuals help the audience get a better understanding. I also want to use visuals to make my presentation more interesting, something that draws their sttention. I want to use some pictures that were on the internet and some that are personal pictures with members of LAMBS in it. I am still wondering if I should use the actual tool (insturment) in front of everyone or not...

These are my goals for presentation no.1 on December 20th.
