Discussion 1 : Body language online Q : What are the two most important body language that you think you want to have next time when you have an online meeting/class?Why? A : In my opinion, the two most important body language aspects are eye contact and gestures.      Without a doubt that eye contact is the most important body language aspect that I want to improve on. I think people with good eye contact come off as significantly more confident and charismatic. Studies have shown that those who maintain a good amount of eye contact are more memorable and more attractive.      The other one are gestures. Why it's so important that when you speak with your hands as well. In fact, people are more likely to listen to you when you're using your hands. So, if a number of people are speaking, you're going to listen to the person whose hands are moving. At the same time, using gestures might help you exaggerate and add emphasis to what you're saying.
