3) Describe the connection you see between your donation and course content. (5)
Sample description: This video offers an interesting study of the elements of delivery. Copious examples are offered for comparison. Each clip includes comments that highlight the strengths of the speaker, often referencing subject matter we have covered in class, for example posture and body language as it relates to approachability of speaker and audience connection. Ultimately I find it to be inspiring and informative.
