Model Ebola ConferenceOctober 28th, 2014

IN HIS OWN WORDS

My recent experiences with electronic video communication, in this case, online systems like Skype, have redefined my conceptions of technology and global communication. This entertaining and informative experience, though disproportionately stressful to one with little familiarity with the inherent circumstances, greatly increases my sense of solidarity with other people.

IN HIS OWN WORDS

When thrust into conditions such as I was, one is forced to quickly adapt and learn invaluable skills including public speaking and self-confidence. The video conference our class participated in was such an occasion. Therein I presented four minor speeches and responded promptly to the overseer’s questions. Other than personal experience and mental/emotional exercise, the conference

IN HIS WORDS

-was highly educational from an objective view, with detailed information researched and presented by schools and groups around the world. I am grateful for the opportunities and challenges it has presented to me.
