Presentation and Reflection

1. In what way did the first interview affect your presentation? Please explain, be specific and use an example. 
- My conversation with Ryan Albanese covered a lot over welding.  The main thing that helped my presentation was my understanding of the differences between soldering, welding, and brazing.  I already understood what went on in soldering, but welding and brazing were still just a tad unclear.  His explanation of brazing gave me the understanding and the confidence to speak about the differences in each topic.  What i learned from him allowed me to give a more detailed explanation of brazing, which is one of the more complicated of the three to explain. 


2. What you say stood out about your presentation performance and why?
- I feel a few things actually stood out.  My visuals were quite clear on what i was talking about and relevant to each individual topic. Also, i could have kept going in my presentation and I feel that is an important factor in this situation.  I felt I was explaining my topic quite thoroughly, perhaps too much, because i ran out the time.


3. What was the most challenging to do and why?
- The most challenging part was trying to fit in all my information to just 5 minutes.  Asking questions seemed to be really easy.  I probably could have even only explained the difference between soldering and welding and met the time requirement.  I think i overdid it with the stuff I was going over, so I'll have to beware of that for the next presentation.
