Amalimar's Reflection on presentations

 Amalimar Ferreira 
Group #1

    To start off, I can see not a lot of us like to present. I tried very hard to avoid taking a speech class for a long time because of how much I dislike to present ever since high school. I'm extremely shy and I was afraid I would stutter or not say the right things. I thought I wouldn't have much to say either but as I spoke to my group and practiced on my own I believed I could do it even if it was going to be a short presentation. I was scared the moment I found out I was in Group 1, the first group to present. My group decided to do zoom calls to get to know each other so that we could be comfortable enough to help each other through our worries. It was a great experience and I hope we can have the same teamwork for the next presentation.

As a member of group 1 I think we did amazing. We were strangers but this group presentation brought a bunch of college students together to work quick, since we were the first to present. The zoom call went on for about 2 hours as we bonded and spoke about what to do to present. It was not hard to choose the pages we were going to do for chapter 3. I enjoyed reading my page and as well as the whole chapter because it was new to me and it was nice to learn something new. I thought everyone’s PowerPoint slides were creative and colorful. My favorite thing about working with this group was that we decided to make a PowerPoint with all slides together so it would be easier to present. I like how students knew what they were presenting, and they studied their page correctly. Everyone spoke loud and clear and although we were all shy, it was fun and I am proud of this group.

    Group #2 started out quick and straight to the point. They wasted no time to begin their introduction. Their individual presentations had great speaking and it was very easy to understand what they were talking about. Their slides were simple and not confusing at all. Some students read off slides but that's okay because I did the same thing. It's not easy to memorize a page full of information. I can see this group worked together to make an amazing PowerPoint. Their presentation helped me learn different things in the chapter they did. The videos they used also went with what they were explaining and that helped the listeners understand a lot more. I love how many pictures and graphs this group included, images help people understand things better. Although there were some complications, you can tell they put in effort to fix the issues to continue their presentations.

This group was very informative and I can see many agree with me. All information was put into my mind and it all happened so quickly. They did not stop at all and It was very interesting to hear. They provided many details and great videos to go with the chapter. It helped me understand the chapter extremely well and the topics as well. The slides were filled and you can tell these students were focused on getting the information out clearly. It was an organized group and they clarified leadership and the qualities of leadership. The effort was amazing and they did a wonderful presentation. 

In conclusion, this project was a way to see how different group can come together to teach a topic we all started learning about. I got to meet new people and I got to face a fear of speaking in front of others. I have more to learn about and I hope I can continue on with this group because it was fun. All groups showed the effort and hard work they put into this. Great job! to everyone.
