The Science of Stage Fright

When I cam across Richard Byrne's: Free Tech4Teachers post this morning, I saw he had included a great TED video on what stage fright is and why we feel it. It goes into the biology of what happens in our body when we feel this type of fear and offers some solutions to help you adapt to it so you can be more relaxed when you speak in public.

The video has great visuals and explanations for how our body's fight or flight reflex can be triggered to cause this type of fear and what can be done to counter it.

I know many students, and some adults too, feel this when they are about to make a presentation, so this video might help some people overcome their fear and become better public speakers.
