Snailed It: 20 Time Project, Final Post

Finally, I am done with my 20 Time Project (or at least the part that was done for a school grade). I have finally published my website, which can be found at triplepproject.weebly.com. To wrap up my project and introduce it the class, we also created a TED talk-like presentation. The video of my TED talk can be found on Youtube here; I have also embedded it below:
I think my presentation went pretty well. I liked my introduction and felt that it got people's attention and made them more interested in what I was saying. However, I felt that my presentation could have been more organized and I could have had a better conclusion talking about how my project matters to everybody else. I could have improved my presentation by starting to prepare for it earlier and practicing it more. Right before giving my presentation, I felt very nervous, but as I was giving it, I actually did not feel as nervous anymore.

Overall, I liked the 20 Time project because it gave me an opportunity to pursue a topic I was interested in. During the project, I learned a lot both about my chosen topic and about time management and organization. From listening to other people's 20 Time projects, I think they learned similar things, as many of them also talked about time management and not getting distracted from their topic.
