As a CSU student, you can take advantage of the Presentation Practice Room, which is managed by the Digital Design Studio in RT301 (the third floor of the library). The Presentation Practice Room is equipped with a smart board, PC, and video equipment to film yourself. Reviewing video of yourself is a great way to understand and improve your presentation skills. Practice makes perfect!
