Guest Lecture to Marketing Students

Earlier today I presented a lecture to Marketing undergraduate students in the Business School. It is the first time I have presented in the new Business School building and I was impressed with the facilities and layout of the room.

The presentation/lecture was about Blogging. So I gave a brief overview of the history and asked the students to perform a couple of tasks during the hour. I feel that it went ok. The only thing that didn’t work was when I tried to upload a blog post via my phone app. I think it was struggling to connect to the wi-fi. It worked fine an hour earlier on the main campus but not in Barrack Road.

It made a pleasant change to present to students. It made me realise amongst other things how far removed I am from them now in terms of age although at times I think I am on their level. Mentioning Friends Reunited got a laugh/perplexed reaction.
