Description: How do we engage students like speakers in viral TED Talk videos, when we may not see ourselves as particularly extroverted? If I’m nervous, how do I get up in front of my class and teach anyways? How can I take steps towards being an (even) more engaging speaker in class, and what role does this play in student learning and engagement? In this interactive session, we will discuss strategies for dealing with the anxiety that many may feel about lecturing in front of a room of students. Participants will also discuss strategies for increasing student engagement while getting the opportunity to deliver an impromptu talk to colleagues while receiving constructive feedback. In a safe environment, we can embrace stage fight while promoting student engagement through some practice with feedback!
