I learned from Mr. Cowen’s presentation that public speaking shouldn’t frighten you. When Mr. Cowen presented in front of my english class, he cracked jokes and broke the tension, making it a comfortable environment for the whole class. He brought in his 3D printer in and even demonstrated how to use and create things with the 3D printer. He showed a great example of how my group should present for our Genius Hour.

According to Michael Michalko, genius isn’t about scoring highly on the SAT’s or having an extremely high IQ like what most people would associate being a “genius” with. Being a “genius” is about thinking creatively and productively, not reproductively. Creative geniuses are geniuses because they know "how" to think, instead of "what" to think. One shared strategy of a genius is to “Make your thoughts visible”. My Genius Hour Project encourages me to think more creatively and to speak on my thoughts.
