Presentations Day#3

Presentations
"Should College Athletes be Paid" by Andrew, Francisco, and Ivan was over all a pretty good presentation, they touched on some important points of the issue in NCAA. Some positives that i like about their presentation is that they were all pretty knowledgable about their topic and kept really good composure throughout the presentation. Some negatives of the presentation, is that the the speaking between all of them was very disorganized, almost as if they were just jumping in randomly to talk at times. 

"Violent Video Games" by Pavel, David, and Forrest i feel like was a good topic choice for them. Some positivejs that I liked was that they had a lot of good lead arguments and at the same time came back with some really good rebuttals to them. They also used really good multi-modality throughout their presentation. Some negative that I disliked is that they were all pretty neutral about the subject and really just spoke on the subject itself the whole time and never really took a side. 

Group Project Reviews Day#2

“Hypocrisy is a Whore” The presentation about prostitution by Brian, Carlo, and Saul was not too good of a topic to me. They did make some good points, but with this topic being frowned upon so badly, there’s not many could things to say about the topic, and the bad things are already self-explanatory to most people.  In this life, everything revolves around money and I do understand that prostitution is these women’s solution but I think all of them can do a lot better than that. The main point of deciding what the difference is between treating your girlfriend out to dinner and buying her nice things and having sex with her later and prostitution is interesting, but we all have to admit; they are two whole different ideas. Over all, this presentation was pretty good, I think the speaking was divided equally and everyone knew what they were talking about.

 

“Space exploration” by Blake, Doyle, and Daniel was the most interesting topic of all so far. The project was done on a fascinating topic that had to have gotten everyone’s attention right out of the gate. I mean come one, who doesn’t think about the future and what it is going to be like 20 years or more from now with all of the new technologies being invented and so on. They used pretty good visuals in their presentation that helped keep everyone engaged. One thing I think they could have done better was divide the speaking time between each partner more equally. Daniel talked most of the time but after all he is a very good presenter but I think it could have been a lot better if everyone spoke at least nearly the same amount. Over all this was a very good topic and presentation.

 

“The Truth Behind Diets”- Irania, Jessica, and Randee was a very good topic because today in our society most people worry about their self-image more than anything. Even though a lot of the stuff they discussed was pretty self-explanatory, I loved the way they used an example of a famous singer who had problems with her body so she began to cut herself. That part stuck out to me the most because it shows that even famous or wealthy people go through the same problems as the average people do. To be honest this part got me more engaged with the topic. I also loved how they went over all the different types of eating disorders instead of the most cliché one, “overweight.” What I thought they could have done better is give some information on diets that are a solution to these problems and what food people should go for and what not to go for.
