Vacation transportation in the olden days |
Jeff, our sole speaker for the hour, used the fifth speech out of the Speaking to Inform manual, The Abstract Concept. The objective of this speech was to speak on an abstract concept or theory and explain the idea in a clear and interesting manner. Jeff’s speech, titled, “A Framework for Personal Knowledge Management,” went into detail of how we can capture and measure knowledge in the Information Age. He opened with an interesting question, “How do you know what you know?” Cindy noted that it was a challenging speech, and that Jeff explained the theory well.
Table Topics was fun, covering everyone’s summer experiences. Snippets include:
- Thomas's memorable vacation spot - Clear Lake in Michigan.
- Ken’s childhood experience - being stuck behind a logging truck, taking a shortcut around, then ending up behind the same logging truck.
- Aparna’s childhood experience - nagging her parents about the eternities that took place before arriving at their destination.
- My favorite summer treat - the Sonic menu.
It was a fun, clever meeting, and I look forward to seeing even more people in two weeks!
