29. IN
HIS
OWN
WORDS
My
recent
experiences
with
electronic
video
communicaMon,
in
this
case,
online
systems
like
Skype,
have
redefined
my
concepMons
of
technology
and
global
communicaMon.
This
entertaining
and
informaMve
experience,
though
disproporMonately
stressful
to
one
with
liKle
familiarity
with
the
inherent
circumstances,
greatly
increases
my
sense
of
solidarity
with
other
people.

30. IN
HIS
OWN
WORDS
When
thrust
into
condiMons
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
parMcipated
in
was
such
an
occasion.
Therein
I
presented
four
minor
speeches
and
responded
promptly
to
the
overseer’s
quesMons.
Other
than
personal
experience
and
mental/emoMonal
exercise,
the
conference

31. IN
HIS
WORDS
-­‐was
highly
educaMonal
from
an
objecMve
view,
with
detailed
informaMon
researched
and
presented
by
schools
and
groups
around
the
world.
I
am
grateful
for
the
opportuniMes
and
challenges
it
has
presented
to
me.
