    On Wednesday May 12 was an amazing day for Speech 1017! On this day we all presented on chapters three, nine, and ten. I'll be honest I was really nervous! I have social anxiety so presentations are quite hard for me, but since this class is over blackboard collaborative its much easier! presenting always results in me having a mini panic attack, but since everyone was so encouraging and so friendly (some one even said they liked my room!) my part went by smoothly. Everyone's presentations also went so great. My peers did such a great job introducing the material and explaining everything in an easy way to understand. It was so nice learning about new topic and learning new things about some materials i already knew about. I think professor sherri's Sinkoff class is going to be great!

    My group (group one) presented chapter three, this chapter was about Intercultural communication. Myself specifically, I presented on Ethnicity, Native language, Sex, and Gender. Some of my group mates presented on things such as, values, ideal values, dominant culture, culture, and much more! 

Group number two presented on chapter nine. This chapter's presentation was about group

 communication. Group number three presented on chapter ten which was about leadership! I think 

my group did an amazing job explaining and finding great informational videos on the topic that were 

presented. The other groups also did an great job demonstrating they're information. Overall everyone 

did great! (good job everyone!)

Now lets talk about  what i learned and my experience with the presentations! So i will start out with 
chapter nine and what i learned from group number two! Group two's chapter was about Communicating 
in groups. Somethings I got to in this presentation learned were the nature and types of groups, for 
example, a family a type of group the definition is a family is a group of people who, through their 
comcommunication, generate a sense of home, group identity, history, and future. Over all this group
 
presented the information well and i was able to learn new things!

Now on to the last group! Group number three and they're chapter ten! Chapter ten was about Group 

leadership and problem solving. Group number three explained such things as, how leaderships function

 in teams, described how to run effective meetings and more! I liked learning about leadership because as 

a person who is very shy and nevr speaks outs its great to learn about leadership skills and tools. Learning 

about these things can help me and others out there to use these resources in the future. Leadership is 

about influencing others to achieve common goals. Overall group number three did an excellent job 

showing us great information on they're chapter!

 

Now for my final thoughts on these presentations! In my opinion I think everything went smoothly and

 everyone did a fantastic job presention theyre chapters and theyre information. Some of my peers also 

had such informative videos explaining there topics in such an easy way to learn. Overall everything 

went great thank you to all my peers for creating amazing presentations!

  My Reflection Photo of two men communicating.     In my speech class, we were separated into three groups and were delegated a chapter to present to the class. This meant that we would be in charge of teaching the class. This had initially made me nervous because this was something out of the ordinary. In all my college experience, it was always the professor who lectured while I would eventually doze off. However, my spunky professor, Sherri, had flipped the roles and I can honestly say this approach was far more interesting.  This picture depicts different languages around the world. My group was in charge of teaching the class chapter three, "Intercultural Communication". I can confidently say that I am grateful for my group. There were no problems and everyone was able to agree on things easily. We all chose to make Ana our group leader and she was able to equally divide the chapter sections for us to create our  slides and present. Now, when it came to th...

This was our first class presentation, and we were all split into groups with assigned chapters 3, 9  and 10. Since this was our first time presenting in the class, I was extremely nervous to present  because  I am very shy and I don't like being the center of attention. Just having the feeling of  knowing all my classmates and professor are watching, and analyzing my presentation, was very  nerve-racking. I was part of group one, which focused on chapter 3: intercultural communication.  After we presented, I felt relieved that I got past the hardest part, which was speaking in front of  the class. That was one thing that I did not like, which was present, but since this is a speech  class we all are learning how to properly speak in public and overcome our fears. Other than  that, I was fascinated by everyone's amazing work and I really enjoyed seeing their  creative slides. This project was an opportunity to practice my public speaking...

Thoughts on Presentations   In my Speech class for Summer 2021, we were all divided into three groups and were supposed to present a certain chapter; I was in group 1 and in charge of Chapter 3. Before even presenting the chapter to our Speech class I was already nervous and stressed. I had a lot of responsibility being the group leader, I was in charge of giving instructions and answering many questions, that I did not know and made me a bit stressed. I was also afraid that my classmates were not going to do their work and I was going to look bad in front of the professor, however, I was more than surprised; when I checked the PowerPoint and saw that everyone did their respective part, I was very happy and content that I got them to work with. After that, was the anxiety about the presentation and hoping that everything went as planned.       Chapter 3 was Intercultural Communication in which I learned a lot while doing my part of the work. Communication is som...
