During a professional learning meeting, I was the presenter. I put all of my notes into a PowerPoint presentation. I started out with an icebreaker, which went very well. I turned on the computer and waited a few minutes and nothing happened. I checked the power cords to make sure everything was connected. I got so nervous I started sweating, my partner said, “let’s just do this without the PowerPoint presentation”. I know I had to come up with something very fast so, what I decided to do was to take the presentation into another room. We moved the presentation into another room and it went very well. The lesson I learned from this is to check out everything at least a day or hour before. If I had done that then I could have planned another location before hand.
