In LSC1503 Communication Skills, I learned about TED Talk
for the first time and how it deals with the problems that are around the
world. What we did in TED Talk was to summarize these videos or shows into a
few words between 120-150 words and make an audio link talking about it
vocally. Secondly, we were introduced to the PSA (Public Service Announcement)
and it is almost as similar a TED Talk, but it is only a few seconds long.
In the third exercise, we did a C.V writing and an interview
which was about me applying to a job and at the same time it was about me
asking questions. So I was the interviewee and the interviewed person at the
same time. Then we did the Poverty presentation and it was about picking a
country and doing a power point about it. The power point was called Pecha
Kucha.
I will apply these skills in my future work environment by
focusing mostly on the Presentation. Pecha Kucha was a great example of how to
do a proper power point. A power point that will not bore the people that are
listening to me. In the C.V Writing, I was able to make a C.V that will help me
get accepted in a job I want to apply to. Those two will be useful in the work
environment. TED Talk was a good example to help you summarize vocal
conversations and taking the main points out of it and keep it short. PSA
(Public Service Announcement) was also helpful in giving an advice to the
public to avoid using or taking any sort of objects that would cause them
problems.
