the reflection of presentation this morning

Presentation is one of the most important skills for students who study at a master level. Today, I have had a little bit of presentation with my group members. Obviously, most of us haven't done it very well, not only because of nervous, but also lack of preparation. Why this happening sometimes, in my opinion, there are several seasons as follows:

Firstly, lack of practice. As we known, practice makes perfect. The more exercise, the better ability we get. Secondly, more comprehensive skills needed. As far as I am concerned, the presentation should be on the basis of well-understanding of what we have read. Sometimes, we face the fact that there are some abstract objectives which make us misunderstood or confused. Thus, we need more research to help us to learn what's the author's exactly purpose, especially the implication in it. Thirdly, lack of awareness of knowledge in communication with audience. When we start a presentation, we often neglect our audience's feeling, looking at the white board or out of the window, thinking about how to examine the structure of our presentation or things like that. It seems what should be ignored is not the audience, but the details of ourselves.

In summary, we still need more improvement in master studying, and the action we must take first is more reading, although it is not a short-term goal.
