Hi folks!
I hope all of you are well and doing great at the same time. Today, I want to share a fresh observation before you. I thought it might be discussed and shared with you guys. I don't know it with or not; but let's see.. Ha ha...
Yesterday, I gave a class in public speaking to my grade six students. Though I had little experience doing it as easy pissy. But luckily my part was about generating ideas and how to deliver them. I tried my best and I think I made them aware of some key points to give importance.
I am here to share it today. At first I asked them not to overthink while speaking or making a point during a presentation. Doing some pre- brainstorming always helps to avoid many hazards during that certain time.
At the very beginning of my class I gave them a topic and asked them to describe that topic as they wanted to. Many came forward and made their point and surely they are pretty good though.
I started from there giving the example of what they just did earlier on. Each one of them described the topic from a different perspective and that is called diversifying the notion. Simply, I wanted to make them understand how a general or simple topic can be portrayed in so many ways.
I told them to think about their favourite bicycle and say a few words about it. Surprisingly, they shared different viewpoints from different perspectives. And that is totally cool.
I made them notice that some of them just described it or you can say the physical shape of it. How it looks cool compared to others. Some of them have come out with the different types and brands with detailed observation on performance.
Some even shared their recent cycling adventures which were really amazing. And most surprisingly one of them uttered her first experience of riding it for the first time. So, there were a lot of them.
Even I couldn’t help putting something new onto it. I told them how the human body can be compared with a bicycle. It’s a kind of Baul philosophy on Dehototto (related to body and spirituality at the same time); they listened it with much enthusiasm.
I told them that a bicycle can also be called an Iron Horse! They were like, huh! And then they got my point and said yes sir, definitely it is a horse indeed.
And the thing that mostly amazed me is that one of the back benchers raised hand and astonishingly relates it to modern robotics or ai thing that is much appreciated. I was like, nice toh!
However, it was a short session and I had to rape it up as soon as possible. The next presenter was standing right behind me. So, I made a conclusion.
I told them not to stick to the traditional format of expressing a topic. Rather, they should think or go beyond the boundaries. That is how they could find their certain stand point which they like to put forward.
Even though it is important to keep an eye on pronunciation, intonation, gesture and postures at the same time, sometimes a good observation helps to avoid any unnecessary trouble.
I know my students are skilled enough to do well in public speaking. I just wanted to let them be aware of and try to do a bit better than what they do.
And finally I stopped; and I am happy I was successful sharing my ideas to them at the same time made them think about it with great care.
So, folks; I think it will also help you to generate new ideas and even numorous amazing ways to put them into words. That is the only reason for sharing it here....
I hope you like it. And thanks for your time.
Hopefully you are doing great! So,
Chillax!
