SPC1017 Review

     In this new project that was assigned to us, all three groups had to do research on how voting affects us in all aspects. Some individuals don’t have enough knowledge on voting, for example in finding what party the individual relates to and has the same views as. When voting, it is very important to base your vote on unbiased and scholarly information. Nowadays everything is extremely political more than ever before, we must watch out for false propaganda. Everyone seems to have a different opinion, the media not making it any better. Nonetheless all three groups showed us how everyone can make a difference in the outcome of elections. In other words, your vote determines who will affect public policy in all three branches of the federal government: executive, legislative, and judicial. For state and local government, the process is the same. In fact, everything you do in society is determined by public policy being where you work, shop, live and go to school. Knowi...

  Fed Sendy Jn Baptiste Having heard the presentations from each of these groups, I am grateful to each of them. I would also like to thank the teacher who gave us subjects that we found very enjoyable. I really enjoyed the presentations. As I learned a lot about topics ranging from education to healthcare, immigration to law and order, racial divide, and economy. In each of these subjects, elections play a significant role. The most effective way to learn and discover different aspects of something is through the presentation. In their presentations, the students were clear and precise in their explanations. They demonstrated excellent communication skills when expressing thoughts and opinions and demonstrate a clear understanding of how images and videos are interpreted. During the presentations, the class was divided into three groups: group 3 presented immigration to law and order, group 2 presented the economy and racial divide, and group 1 presented education and healthca...

  Why do our elections matter?      Why should we care about our elections? How do our elections impact us and our day-to-day lives?              Those are questions I learned the answers to during this project that was assigned to my classmates and I, the theme project. The theme of our project was elections and why they matter. We were given topics to choose from that fit with the project's overall theme. Our choices were: Healthcare, Education, Economy, Racial Divides, Immigration and Law-and-Order and each group had to choose two topics from the list. We were also in the same groups and the same members as our last presentation. My group, group one, agreed to do Healthcare and Education as those were the topics we were most interested and knowledgeable in. The good thing was that we were already familiar with each other so we were mostly comfortable working on our own. However, we did face a few challenges along the way. At...

In our new presentations, all three groups have conducted extensive research on voting and how it affects us. Many people may not have enough knowledge when it comes to voting. It is very important when voting to be informed of our candidates' dreams and what they wish to accomplish along with realizing the truth behind their words. In this day and age of ads and commercials, propaganda is bigger now than ever. Not only are we being mailed and emailed things about our candidates but it eams we cannot go a day without a campaign or smear campaign against other politicians. With all these opinions being thrown at us, we. may be swayed by one video. But with these presentations, all three groups made it clear what can deter us from voting and why it is so important to vote and encourage your family to also vote. 1 person may not sway the vote, but 50 people can surely do that.   Group One This is the group that I am part of, we presented last. Which was discussed by my group or s...

  Fed Sendy Jn Baptiste My personal thanks go out to all members of the groups for these presentations. The presentations were very enjoyable for me. In my opinion, presenting is one of the best ways to learn and discover, being able to discover from the speakers and other attendees is a rewarding experience for me as an attendee. The speakers presented their ideas in a logical order, showed a good command of the language, demonstrate excellent communication skills when expressing thoughts and opinions, and displayed a good understanding of how to interpret images and videos during presentations. The class was divided into three groups and the topics are as the following, “Intercultural communication, Communication in groups, and Group leadership and problem-solving”. My group was the first to present Intercultural communication, an examination of the relationship between culture and communication. It was an appealing presentation; I learned a great deal concerning it. The purp...

 Alexandra Blanco       The group to go up first was my group we presented on September 1, 2022, Thursday about chapter 3 which was on intercultural communications. Our group consisted of 12 members Amy, Andres, Brian, Christie-Anne, Daniel, Daniela B, Daniela H, Denise, Emanuel, Fred, Gabriela, and me. Here I enjoyed the communication and the effort we all made to get everything together in the shortest amount of time. I am happy with how the presentation came out and with the feedback we received. Everyone in the group did terrifically and a big shout-out to the group leader, Daniela B, who was there to help everyone when she could. I remember that even till the last moment we were trying to help each other out with our nerves and make sure everything will go on smoothly. I'm happy I got put in this group and will be working with them on other projects/presentations.       After my group went the next group to go up was group 2. They Presen...

Amy Estopinan   9/27/2022   Professor-   Sinkoff   Speech 1017   Presentation Blog This was a great learning experience an d a good w ay to work as a grou p in order to create a presentation. At first, I was very nervous to work on a group project online because they are usually done face to face in a classroom. To my surprise this project has taught me different ways to communicate as a group and help each other when we get stuck on a topic. As a group member in group one I feel like we really brought our presentation together as a group. The appearance of our presentatio n definitely broug ht some excitement to our presentation which intern made the experience for the viewers more exiting and enjoyable. As the first group to present we did have less amount of time to complete this presentation than the other group which became a little overwhelming for some of us. However, we were able to work as a group and get our topics down on the deadline. ...
