Go to www.ted.com and search for “Body Language.”

Watch the Ted Talk by social psychologist Amy Cuddy,

“Your Body Language Shapes Who You Are.” After watching the video, break into small groups and discuss the following questions.

■ Practice some power poses. Each person in your group should practice a power pose for two minutes.
After those two minutes, have each person present his or her career goals in a one-minute presentation to the rest of the group. Observe each other carefully.
How does each person look? Discuss body language and presence.
■ Outside-of-class activity: Tell your friends about the Ted Talk by Amy Cuddy, and encourage them to try their own power poses. Take pictures of them in their power poses and bring to class for discussion
