Reflecting on the inservice

I need to be a bit more confident in the way I portray information. For the seizure drill, I didn’t teach what I read in the book. Katelyn told the guards to put a tube under a seizing victim, and even though I knew not to do that, I didn’t want to tell Katelyn not to do it. I knew the information, but didn’t speak up.

I was good at answering questions and when I didn’t know, I handed it off to CC or Maddie to avoid giving false answers.

I did a lot of preparation and I think I came up with a pretty helpful game. If there was a way to practice leading an inservice, I would have done that. I feel I need to be better at public speaking, but CC assured me I’ll get better at it as I practice.

I need to project my voice more and improve speaking posture.

    The feedback I heard too was that the activity needs to be less “lecture” and more action. Pre-printing the information and letting people use as a reference works. And then structure a game or activity that has clear rules and actions defined first allows people to use their training and references as part of the activity instead of listening to a speaker; which is boring.

    Good personal insight here and like CC said, it does get easier over time.
