I have witnessed students becoming more confident with their public speaking skills by video recording their speech and watching it and self-critiquing. At first, it can be a bit strange, yet over time students begin to view themselves "outside of themselves" and this seems to lighten things up and allow for creativity and confidence to blossom.
