This project automates this process of turning lights on and off for the most common tasks. For instance a Standard Speech should be between 5 and 7 minutes: you get a green light when you reach the 5 minute mark, a yellow light at 6 minute and red one after 7 minutes. Toastmasters Timer is basically a timer-controlled traffic light with some presets for specific tasks which are time-bound at any Toastmasters meeting. That's when I decided to find a nice project to my Arduino Nano. This timing process often is manual, error-prone and a little boring. This online speech timer tool works best with the WordPress for Toastmasters system for organizing your agenda, but is also available here for use independent of a club website. Confirm the allotted times for each speech on the agenda.
Take a look, you'll probably find a club near you that you can visit to learn a little more.Īnyway, one of the things we learn at Toastmasters is to deliver speeches and, on top of other evaluation criteria, we have a person controlling the time of your speech, as we have to keep it between specified thresholds. On a blank sheet of paper (or the Timer Report Form), list the names of the Speakers, Speech Evaluators, and General Evaluator. Small board - great value (Or how a little Arduino Nano is improving our Toastmasters meetings)įor those who are still wondering what Toastmasters ( ) means, this is as non-profit organization which helps people develop their communication and leadership skills.
