Presentation #2

Today was our last RW class...:(

Moe - Her presentation kept the audience's attention because how she presented was very smooth and her speech was well organized.

Megumi Kii - I liked her opening speech and how she used her personal experience. I didn't know that people threw away trash every 7 meters. ahaha  

Maki - I thought her presentation was quite different than other people;s 

Natsuko - I really liked how she used Takumi as an example when talking about the mobile applicatin LINE.

Kenta - Even though Kenta had the same topic as Moe, I think he looked at Honda from a different perspective which was good because I learned about him mroe.

Shiho - I really liked her research topic. If I had that idea, I would have loved to research that topic too.

Yusuke - I thought his presentation was perfect for him because I knew he liked history. 

Overall, everyone's presentation was really good and I'm really sad that I won't be able to listen to more of their presentations since ELA is over.

Thank you Ken for teaching us this term. I think Stream1A is blessed to have had two great teachers two terms in a row. Ken's class helped me think about what it is to be a leader, communication skills and overall analyze my life. I really enjoyed listening to the guest speakers. Thank you Ken! :)

Presentations

Wow, I cannot believe that we are already done with our research writing and moving on to the presentations!! This term, time is limited so we can't do a long presentation, which is a shame because everyone's topics are so interesting!! 

Take - I really liked his use of images. The images he chose were very capturing so I could relate to what he was presenting about.

Takumi - His explanation of the graph he used was very surprising. I learned that there are certain reasons why the sale goes up and down. For example, when its christmas or holidays sales go up.

Megumi H - I didn't know much about Cola except that its bad for you and melts your teeth(I heard this from somewhere when I was a kid) so her presentation information was new to me. Since she lived in Atlanta, I understand why she chose that topic!!

Kristi - I knew Tsuda Umeko from Tsuda university so it was interesting listening to Kristi's presentation. I really like how she brought the books she referenced at the end :)

Hitomi - I take psychology class with her and we talked about her interest in psychology so it was interesting to hear her presentation. 

Can't wait for the other presentations!!
