Congrats to our presentation!!!


I am so flattered that we got the compliment from Dr. Law and also we did a great job on our presentation! Yay for us!!!
Looking back for the last seven days, success didn't come easily. I really want to share our preparation here.
In order to get a wide understanding of our topic, everyone of us agreed to read through all the readings before we could choose one section that we were interested in. In this way, the next time we gathered together to discuss, we had the same language. And I did think this step is very important for our success. If we followed other groups' model to separate the work at the very beginning, we wouldn't discuss in depth. 
After dividing personal work, every time we met, we posted one question about others' reading, so that we could help further each others' understanding. In this model of discussing, we had to read with a clear mind and it helped us to get a clue of all the readings in a wider view.
After the massive reading and discussing time, we then focused much on one question: How to make our audience understand what we are going to say. This was very hard for us. Because four of us just graduated from University, we don't have much experience on teaching. That's why we wanted to try harder. In order to get the attention of our audience better, we adjusted our PPT many times. The version of our PPT we used in class is the 6th or 7th one. Besides, we spent much time on rehearsal once and once again. Just to ease our nerve about going on stage.
I really enjoyed the time we spent together preparing for our presentation. Even we didn't have much time for meals so we could only had sandwich each time we met. Thanks Tina, Vivian and Carven!
