Here is the data we collected from our project which helped us reach our
conclusion. The conclusion we reached is that impaired senses can in
fact improve you memorization and concentration.
Our TED talk went as anticipated due to our preparation and hard work on
this project. Our fluency and passion were well articulated due to our
knowledge on the topic and both of our prior public speaking skills from speech and debate. If I was to do anything differently I would have brought a timer up there and I would have properly changed the slides to
our content changes. The timing was important since we spoke faster due
to our nerves and thus forget critical information and fell slightly
under time. If we had timed ourselves it would have forced us to stretch
our content and speak slower. I would keep our grade since it gave
points in the areas which we deserved and took of points due to our
incorrect picture citations. It was a really fun experience though it
felt a little rushed due to the time constraints it really helped my
presentation skills and public speaking. Below is our slideshow and out Ted Talk itself.
