Public Speaking and Time Management - Quick Responses

The time management series was a solid set of videos; the 80/20 rule was perhaps the most interesting concept that it taught me. Only 20% of your work is truly essential and that's what should be focused on in your Einstein Window; however, it seemed like his ideas were geared more to people who have desk jobs, not students. That's the major problem with these; they're good ideas, but students can't use them as effectively, given that only focusing on 20% of our workload means picking and choosing classes to place an emphasis on. This isn't me trying to talk bad about the videos of course, the info given is very useful - but for us, only in the context of being employees for VISIONS. As students, it's not super helpful. 

The Public Speaking series was definitely more useful for me. A lot of things in this series were things I've learned before, but it was good to get a refresher, given that public speaking formally isn't one of my strong suits. I can handle a crowd and can handle public speaking, but I tend to get playful and fall into the pitfalls of uhms and errs. The other section that really helped me was the section on Q and A's; I've never really done an official Q and A, besides ones we've had in class for films, so I could use all the help I can get for that stuff.
